Lyics

How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Whence all their bright array?

How came they to the blissful seats

Of everlasting day?



Lo! These are they from sufferings great,

Who came to realms of light,

And in the blood of Christ have washed

Those robes which shine so bright.



Now with triumphant palms they stand

Before the throne on high,

And serve the God they love, amidst

The glories of the sky.



His presence fills each heart with joy,

Tunes ev'ry mouth to sing;

By day, by night, the sacred courts

With glad hosannas ring.
