144. Glory to the blessèd Jesus!

1 Glory to the blessèd Jesus!
Who for us was born,
In the stable, cold and poor,
On glad Christmas morn.

2 Glory to the blessèd Jesus!
Who was crucified
On Good Friday for our sins:
Loving us He died.

3 Glory to the blessèd Jesus!
Who for sinners lay
In the tomb, and rose upon
Happy Easter day.

4 Glory to the blessèd Jesus!
He, Who is our Way,
Went up in a cloud to heaven
On Ascension day.

5 Glory to the blessèd Jesus!
We will praise His love,
All our days on earth below,
And for aye above.

Amen.
