It looks like The Southern Harmony uses this text for Alabama: https://hymnary.org/hymn/CPHS1864/88. The angels stand in verse 1 and sit in the later verse. Even though “The cross of Christ is numbered as verse 1 in Southern Harmony, ”Angels in shining order stand" is the text that is in the music, so I would say that is really verse 1
All of the instances of I will exalt my God and King/O Lord Thou art my God and King are the same paraphrase. The original first line in 1912 Psalter and the New Metrical Version of the Psalms (1909) (which preceded the 1912 Psalter) is “O Lord, Thou art my God and King.” “I will exalt my God and King" is altered from the original. An alteration does not warrant a new authority.
The Christian Hymnary version of “I will extol Thee, O my God” adds a refrain. The addition of a refrain also does not warrant a new authority.
