1. Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates
Hymn by Georg Weissel
Translated by Catherine Winkworth
Tune from Psalmodia Evangelica

2. Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates
Behold, the King of glory waits;
The King of kings is drawing near;
The Savior of the world is here!

3. Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates
2. Fling wide the portals of your heart;
Make it a temple, set apart
From earthly use for heav'n's employ,
Adorned with prayer, and love, and joy.

4. Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates
3. Redeemer, come, we open wide
Our hearts to Thee; here, Lord, abide:
Thine inner presence let us feel;
Thy grace and love in us reveal.
