The person of the Christ,
Enfolding every grace,
Once slain, but now alive again,
In heaven demands our praise.
Gladly of Him we sing,
Since we with Him are dead:
Our life is hid with Christ in God,
In Christ the church's Head.
The heavens are opened now!
Sound it through earth abroad;
And we, by faith, in heaven behold
Jesus the Christ, our Lord.
