Verse 1
When late translated to the skies,
He gains the never-fading crown,
O let his rightful heir arise,
To tread the world and Satan down,
With every royal grace endow’d
To build and guard the house of God.

Verse 2
Thro’ him to Britain’s realms restore
The blessing of Josiah’s sway,
While faith’s full purity and power
Bring back that antient gospel-day,
Abundant peace on earth is given,
And righteousness comes down from heaven.
