Lift up your heads, you mighty gates
Author: Georg Weissel, 1590-1635; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 283 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lift up your heads, you mighty gates,
behold, the King of Glory waits,
the King of kings is drawing near,
the Saviour of the world is here.
2 O blest the land, the city blest
where Christ the ruler is confessed.
O happy hearts and happy homes
to whom this King in triumph comes.
3 Fling wide the portals of your heart,
make it a temple set apart
from earthly use for heaven's employ,
adorned with prayer and love and joy.
4 Come, Saviour, come, with us abide;
our hearts to thee we open wide:
Thy Holy Spirit guide us on,
until our glorious goal is won.
