Jesus is here let all the earth be glad
he sits in enthroned
he is exalted on high
behold your God behold your God
he is surrounded in glory he is surrounded in glory

I am not familiar with this hymn but
think this is the one your are looking for
Jesus Is King
Jesus is King, let all the earth be glad.
He sits enthroned, He is exalted on high.
Behold your God; behold your God!
He is surrounded with glory. He is surrounded with glory.

Jesus is King, let all the earth rejoice.
He moves in power, He reigns in majesty.
Behold your God; behold your God!
He is surrounded with glory. He is surrounded with glory.

As we draw near, we see His glory shine.
We see the pain, yet we see triumph in His eyes.
Behold your God; behold your God!
We are surrounded with glory. We are surrounded with glory.

Thank you!

I know the tune in my head but I cannot find any trace of the composer or performance of the song on iTunes or youtube.

Did you stumble across anything?

Thanks again.

I heard this song in st James church disbursements over 25 years ago played on the organ and it sent me into the heavenlies. I have never heard it since but would love to!

Sounds like a nice song, does anyone have a recording of it or know where it is on the web?

I first heard this song at a Brecon Cathedral Renewal Day in the early 80s. I quickly scribbled down words and music, and have sung it ever since at Churches hwere I have ministered. Great to know, at last, who wrote it.

David Richards, Vicar, St John's Stratford

Thanks for this. Sang this at HTB in the 80s... It is on one of the album's by Cloud, the band there then, but no longer have it - lots of bongos, as I recall!
