461. Our Resurrection

1 O Christ, who hast prepared a place
For us around thy throne of grace,
We pray thee, lift our hearts above,
And draw them with the cords of love.

2 Source of all good, thou gracious Lord,
Art our exceeding great reward:
How transient is our present pain!
How boundless our eternal gain!

3 With open face and joyful heart,
We then shall see thee as thou art;
Our love shall never cease to glow,
Our praise shall never cease to flow.

4 Thy never-failing grace to prove,
A surety of thine endless love,
Send down thy Holy Ghost to be
The raiser of our souls to thee.

5 Oh, future Judge, eternal Lord,
Thy name be hallowed and adored:
To God the Father, King of heaven,
And Holy Ghost, like praise be given.
