|  | 
|  | 1. | We have a most glorious King; | 
|  |  | The heavens, He says, are His throne; | 
|  |  | All worlds are His mighty domain, | 
|  |  | All kingdoms His scepter shall own. | 
|  |  | He dwells with His people below, | 
|  |  | He love in their trials to share; | 
|  |  | We dwell with the King for His work, | 
|  |  | His burden we willingly bear. | 
|  | 2. | I'm dwelling in Jesus my King; | 
|  |  | I've found where He dwells with His | 
|  |  | own; | 
|  |  | I've opened the door of my heart; | 
|  |  | He's made it His temple and throne. | 
|  |  | Like Mary I sit at His feet, | 
|  |  | Like John I recline on His breast; | 
|  |  | His presence is fulness of joy, | 
|  |  | His bosom is infinite rest. | 
|  | 3. | I dwell with the King for His work, | 
|  |  | I've part in His glorious plan | 
|  |  | To bring in His kingdom to earth | 
|  |  | And tell His salvation to man. | 
|  |  | The world has its work and rewards, | 
|  |  | I count them but folly and loss; | 
|  |  | My business is only His work, | 
|  |  | My message is only His cross. | 
|  | 4. | I dwell with the King for His work, | 
|  |  | The work, it is His and not mine; | 
|  |  | He plans and prepares it for me | 
|  |  | And fills me with power divine. | 
|  |  | So duty is changed to delight, | 
|  |  | And prayer into praise as I sing; | 
|  |  | I dwell with my King for His work | 
|  |  | And work in the strength of my King. | 
|  | 5. | We'll dwell with the King for His work | 
|  |  | And work thru each day of the year. | 
|  |  | Perhaps ere it passes, the King | 
|  |  | In glory Himself shall appear. | 
|  |  | Oh, then in some closer embrace, | 
|  |  | Oh, then in some nobler employ | 
|  |  | We'll dwell with the King for His work | 
|  |  | In endless, ineffable joy! |
