Blessed is He who has come betimes,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Blessed be the house and all therein,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,

Blessed is He, blessed is He,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Blessed is He, blessed is He,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Lasting round the house be ye,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Healthy round the hearth be ye,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Many be the stakes in the house,
And men dwelling on the foundation,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Blessed is He, blessed is He,
        Hail to the King, hail to the King,
Blessed is He, blessed is He.
