Text:The Lord of life, with glory crown'd

153. The Lord of life, with glory crown'd

1 The Lord of life, with glory crown'd,
On heav'n's exalted throne,
Forgets not those, for whom on earth
He heav'd his dying groan.

2 His greatness now no tongue of man
Or seraph bright can tell.
Yet still the chief of all his joys;
That souls are sav'd from hell.

3 For this he taught, and toil'd, and bled;
For this his life was giv'n;
For this he fought, and vanquish'd death;
For this he reigns in heav'n.

4 Join, all ye saints beneath the sky,
Your grateful praise to give;
Sing loud Hosannas to his name,
With whom you too shall live.
