Lyics

ATTEND, ye children of your God;

Ye heirs of glory, hear;

For accents so divine as these,

Might charm the dullest ear.



Baptiz'd into your Saviour's death,

Your souls to sin must die;

With Christ your Lord ye live anew,

With Christ ascend on high.



There, by his Father's side, he sits,

Enthron'd divinely fair;

Yet owns himself your brother still,

And your forerunner there.



Rise, from these earthly trifles, rise

On wings of faith and love;

Above your choicest treasure lies,

And set your hearts above.
