Fling Wide the Door Lyrics

Fling wide the door, unbar the gate

The King of glory comes in state

The Lord of lords and King of kings

The Savior of the world who brings

His great salvation to the earth

So raise a shout of holy mirth

And praise our God and Lord

Creator, Spirit, Word

He is the rock of our belief

The heart of mercy's gentle self

His kingly crown is holiness

His scepter is his loveliness

He brings our sorrows to an end

Now gladly praise our king and friend

And worship him with song

For saving us from wrong

Oh, happy towns and blessed lands

That live by their true king's commands

And blessed be the hearts he rules

The humble places where he dwells

He is the rightful Son of bliss

Who fills our lives and makes us his

Creator of the world

Our only strength for good

Come, Lord, our Savior, Jesus Christ

Our hearts are open wide in trust

Oh, show us now your lovely grace

Upon our sorrows shine your face

And let your Holy Spirit guide

Our journey in your grace so wide

We praise your holy name

From age to age the same
