Lyics

JESUS, once for sinners slain,

From the dead was rais'd again!

And in heav'n is now sat down,

With his Father on his throne.



There he reigns a King supreme;

We shall also reign with him;

Feeble souls be not dismay'd;

Trust in his almighty aid.



He has made an end of sin;

And his blood hath wash'd us clean;

Fear not; he is ever near;

Now, e'en now, he's with us here.



Thus assembling, we by faith,

Till he come, show forth his death;

Of his flesh this loaf's the sign:

And we view his blood in wine.



Saints on earth, with saints above,

Celebrate his dying love,

And let ev'ry ransom'd soul

Sound his praise from pole to pole.
