So loved he the world that he gave us his Son,

and opened the life-gate that all may go in.

Let the earth hear his voice!

Let the people rejoice!
Oh, come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
and give him the glory! Great things he has done!

to every believer the promise of God;
for every offender who truly believes,
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives. [Refrain]
3 Great things he has taught us, great things he has done,
and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son:
but purer, and higher, and greater will be
our joy and our wonder, when Jesus we see. [Refrain] Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Discipleship; Adoration Of God; Salvation and Redemption Used With Tune: TO GOD BE THE GLORY

See, the Lord Ascends in Triumph
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 202 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:1-4 Lyrics: 1 See, the Lord ascends in triumph:
Conqu'ring King in royal state,
Riding on the clouds, His chariot,
To His heav'nly palace gate.
Hark! The choirs of angel voices
Joyful alleluias sing,
And the portals high are lifted
To receive their heav'nly King.
2 Who is this that comes in glory
With the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
He has gained the victory.
He who on the cross did suffer,
He who from the grave arose.
He has vanquished sin and Satan;
He by death has crushed His foes.
3 While He lifts His hands in blessing,
He is parted from His friends;
While their eager eyes behold Him,
He upon the clouds ascends.
He who walked with God and pleased Him,
Preaching truth and doom to come,
He, our Enoch, is translated
To His everlasting home.
4 Now our heav'nly Aaron enters
With His blood within the veil;
Joshua now is come to Canaan,
And the kings before Him quail.
Now He plants the tribes of Israel
In their promised resting place:
Now our great Elijah offers
Double portion of His grace.
5 He has raised our human nature
On the clouds to God's right hand;
There we sit in heav'nly places,
There with Him in glory stand.
Jesus reigns, adored by angels;
Man with God is on the throne.
By our mighty Lord's ascension
We by faith behold our own.

the doors are opened wide;
the King of glory is gone in
unto his Father's side.

to make for us a place,
that we may be where now thou art,
and look upon God's face.

a gleam of glory lies,
a light still breaks behind the cloud
that veiled thee from our eyes.
4 Lift up our hearts, lift up our minds:
let thy dear grace be giv'n,
that, while we wander here below,
our treasure be in heav'n;
5 That where thou art, at God's right hand,
our hope, our love, may be:
dwell thou in us, that we may dwell
forevermore in thee.

Kept the folded grave-clothes
Where Thy body lay.

Thou o'er death hast won.

Lovingly He greets us,
Scatters fear and gloom;
Let His Church with gladness
Hymns of triumph sing,
For her Lord now liveth;
Death hath lost its sting. [Refrain]

Glorious Prince of life!

Aid us in our strife;
Make us more than conquerors,
Through Thy deathless love;
Bring us safe through Jordan
To Thy home above. [Refrain]
