Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #99 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship Lyrics: 1 The Lord of life, with glory crown'd,
On heav'n's exalted throne,
Forgets not those, for whom on earth
He heav'd His dying groan.
2 His greatness now no tongue of man
Or seraph bright can tell.
Yet still the chief of all his joys,
That souls are sav'd from hell.
3 For this he taught, and toil'd, and bled;
For this his life was giv'n;
For this he fought, and vanquish'd death;
For this he reigns in heav'n.
4 Join, all ye saints beneath the sky,
Your grateful praise to give;
Sing loud Hosannas to his name,
With whom you too shall live. Topics: Christ His Mission and Works; Christ His Resurrection and Ascension Languages: English
