Lyics

TO Him that lov'd the sons of men,

And wash'd us in his blood,

To royal honours rais'd our heads,

And made us priests to God:



To him let ev'ry tongue be praise,

And ev'ry heart be love;

All grateful honours paid on earth,

And nobler songs above.



Behold, on flying clouds he comes!

His saints shall bless the day;

While they that pierc'd him sadly mourn

In anguish and dismay.



Thou art the First, and thou the Last;

Time centres all in Thee;

Almighty Lord, who wast, and art,

And evermore shalt be.
