LyicsWITH transport, Lord, our souls proclaim
Th' immortal honors of thy name;
Altho' ascended to thy throne,
Thou still art present with thine own.
High on his Father's royal seat,
Our Jesus shone divinely great;
Ere Adam's clay with life was warm'd,
Or Gabriel's nobler spirit form'd.
Thro' all succeeding ages, he
The same hath been-the same shall be;
Immortal radiance gilds his head,
While stars and suns wax old, and fade.
The same his pow'r his flock to guard;
The same his bounty to reward:
The same his faithfulness and love,
To saints on earth, and saints above.
Let nature change, and sink, and die;
Jesus shall raise his chosen high;
And fix them near his heav'nly throne,
In glory changeless as his own.
