Thou didst suffer to release us; Thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, thou universal Savior, Bearer of our sin and shame! By thy merit we find favor: Life is given through thy name. Paschal lamb, by God appointed, All our sins on Thee were laid: By almighty love anointed, Thou has full atonement made. All thy people are forgiven Through the virtue of thy holy blood: Opened is the gate of heaven, Reconciled are we with God. Jesus, hail! Enthroned in glory, There forever to abide; All the heavenly hosts adore Thee. Seated at thy Father's side. There for sinners thou art pleading: There thou dost our place prepare; Ever for us interceding, Till in glory we appear. Worship, honor, power, and blessing Thou art worthy to receive; Highest praises, without ceasing, Right it is for us to give. Help, ye bright angelic spirits, All your noblest anthems raise. Help to sing our Savior's merits, Help to chant Emmanuel's praise! |
