Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #166 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, in Thy transporting name
What glories meet our eyes!
Thou art the seraph's lofty theme,
The wonder of the skies.
2 Well might the heavens with wonder view
A love so strange as Thine;
No thought of angels ever knew
Compassion so divine.
3 And didst Thou, Saviour, leave the sky,
To sink beneath our woes?
Didst Thou descend to bleed and die
For Thy rebellious foes?
4 Oh, may our willing hearts confess
Thy sweet, Thy gentle sway;
Glad captives of Thy matchless grace,
Thy righteous rule obey. Topics: Christ Praise to; Compassoin of Christ; Gratitude for the atonement; Head of the Church; Praise To Christ; Thanksgiving For Redemption Languages: English
