Heav'n and earth are praising Thee, O Lord Most High. 2 Lord of life, beneath the dome Of the universe, Thy home, Gather us, who seek Thy face, To the fold of Thy embrace, For Thou art nigh. (Chorus) 3 While the deep'ning shadows fall, Heart of Love, enfolding all, Thro' the glory and the grace Of the stars that veil Thy face, Our hearts ascend. (Chorus) 4 When forever from our sight Pass the stars, the day, the night, Lord of angels, on our eyes Let eternal morning rise, And shadows end! (Chorus) Amen.

Now scornfully surrounded With thorns, Thine only crown: O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss till now was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered Was all for sinners’ gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Savior! ’Tis I deserve Thy place; Look on me with Thy favor, Vouchsafe to me Thy grace. 3 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered Was all for sinners' gain. Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Saviour!

O make me Thine forever; And should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never Outlive my love to Thee. Used With Tune: [O sacred Head, now wounded]
