| Text: | He that came down hath Ascended |
| Author: | James Relly |
Christ, our Head's gone up on high,
And we his body are;
All our sorrows we'll lay by,
And each distracting care:
Tho' we Satan's darts may feel;
Yet he can never strike us dead:
He may bruise us on the heel,
But cannot reach our Head.
