To be Lord is be King,
And to be subject to Him,
Is to be obedient to Law.
Hence, He is my Lawd.
Again, the LORD is my Lawgiver,
Therefore I call Him my Lawd.
He is my Chief Commander,
He speaks, He commands,
And so I obey His word.
He is my Grandmaster,
Hence I give Him laud!
He is my King-General
I delightfully kiss His sword.
My Director He is,
For He constantly shows me the way;
My Leader He is,
For He leads each day,
Yes, without fail.
My Instructor He is
For He teaches me to war and not to play.
Guess who is King?
It is my LORD who died to save me
Guess who is Prince?
It is Lord Emmanuel, none but He.
Guess who holds the scepter?
It is my LORD who has been and ever shall be.
He is the humble Chairman for every occasion;
The perfect Governor for every nation;
The wise Counsellor for every knotty situation.
He is my Head!
What an honour so infinite to be His tail!
My Lawd! Sovereign, mighty God, I am awed!
Give me your Law and I shall keep it!
By Your grace I shall keep it!
And so help me LORD!
