Lyics

Jesus, in thy transporting name
What glories meet our eyes!
Thou art the seraph's lofty theme,
The wonder of the skies.


Well might the heav'ns with wonder view
A love so strange as thine:
No thought of angels ever knew 
Compassion so divine.


And didst thou, Saviour, leave the sky
To sink beneath our woes?
Didst thou descend to bleed and die
For thy rebellious foes?


Oh, may our willing hearts confess
Thy sweet, thy gentle sway,
Glad captives of thy matchless grace,
Thy righteous rule obey.
