Christ Ascended,
10
Lord of mercy and of might! Of mankind the Life and Light! Maker, Teacher Infinite!
Jesus ! hear and save !
Who, when sin's tremendous doom Gave creation to the tomb, Didst not scorn the Virgin's womb, Jesus ! hear and save !
Mighty Monarch ! Saviour mild ! Humbled to a mortal child, Captive, beaten, bound, reviled,
Jesus ! hear and save !
Throned above celestial things, Borne aloft on angels' wings, Lord of lords, and King of kings, Jesus ! hear and save !
Who shalt yet return from high, Robed in might and majesty, Hear us ! help us when we cry !
Jesus ! hear and save ! Bishop Reginald Heber.
11
Thou the cup of death didst drain, Thou within the tomb wert laid ;
Thou art Risen, Thou dost reign, Seraphim Thy subjects made ! |
