Lyics

To him that loved the sons of men
And washed us in his blood,
To royal honors raised our heads,
And made us priests to God:


To him let every tongue be praise,
And every heart be love;
All grateful honors paid on earth,
And nobler songs above.


Behold on flying clouds he comes,
His saints shall bless the day;
While they that pierced 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.
