15975. Exalt The Eternal Son

1 Exalt the eternal Son,
Ye saints who know His name,
The wise, the just, the holy One,
Unchangeably the same.

2 He lives, He ever lives,
To plead for us above;
His care preserves, His power protects,
The objects of His love.

3 And soon will He descend,
From His celestial throne,
The world to judge in righteousness,
And make His vengeance known.

4 Then you shall see His face,
Not clouded as before,
But all unveiled, serenely bright,
And wonder and adore.
