Amateur hymn words: Replacing empty syllables
  • Working on words to go along with my fake hymn. Words in red I especially want to switch out with something meatier.

    87.87.D
    Lord eternal, king triumphant,
    ruling from the right-hand throne:
    Heart and cross your orb and scepter,
    That your passion might be known.
    Let our lives proclaim your glory,
    and our lips your sacrifice,
    That the world turns t'word a new day,
    Facing love, its back to vice.

    Master of all saints in heaven,
    Maker of all there in hell:
    Twine us to your will, O Virtue
    Rising as our parents fell.
    Kill our pride, Lord, rule our passions,
    So our off'rings never cease.
    Let the world be our purgation,
    That our suff'rings bow to peace.

    Thank you very much!

    A word for love could be faith. I like the text.
