Lyics

TO him that loved the sons of men,

And washed them 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 those who pierced him sadly mourn,

In anguish and dismay.



Thou art the first, and thou the last,

Time centres all in thee--

Th' almighty Lord, who wast, and art,

And evermore shalt be.
