Hail the day that sees Him rise
Author: C. Wesley Appears in 551 hymnals Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees Him rise,
Glorious, to His native skies!
Christ, awhile to mortals given,
Reascends His native heaven.
2 There the glorious triumph waits;
Lift your heads, eternal gates!
Wide unfold the radiant scene;
Take the King of Glory in!
3 Him though highest heaven receives,
Still He loves the earth He leaves;
Though returning to His throne;
Still He calls mankind His own.
4 See, He lifts His hands above!
See, He shows the prints of love!
Hark, His gracious lips bestow
Blessings on His Church below!
5 Still for us His Death He pleads;
Prevalent, He intercedes:
Near Himself prepares our place,
Harbinger of human race.
6 There we shall with Thee remain,
Partners of Thy endless reign;
There Thy face unclouded see,
Find our heaven of heavens in Thee. Used With Tune: INNOCENTS

Om Salighed og Glæde
Author: A. K. Arrebo Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Ascension Day For Evening Lyrics: 1 Om Salighed og Glæde
Der nu skal synges fridt
I de Forløstes Sæde
Og Guds Pauluner vidt;
Thi ved Guds høire Haand
Er Kristus høit ophøiet,
Ham Seier stor tilføiet,
Han Døden overvandt.
2 Mens han er saa i Live,
Da Dø vi ingenlund,
Men skulle frelste blive,
Fortælle Guds Miskund;
Om vi end refses saa,
Vi lægges lukt i Grave,
Dog skal vi Livet have,
Udødelig opstaa.
3 Den Kirkesteen grundfaste,
Den Herre Jesus Krist,
De Bygningsmænd forkaste,
Men han er bleven vist
Til Hoved-Hjørnesteen
For Kirken Guds paa Jorde,
Den Gjerning Herren gjorde,
Des undres hver og een!
4 Dig, Jesus Krist, ske Ære,
Som kom i Herrens Navn!
Guds Folk velsignet være
Af Herrens Hus og Stavn!
Vi takke hver for sig
Den Herre overmaade,
Thi hans Miskund og Naade
Staar fast evindelig.

He Is Lord
Th'atoning work is done
Author: Thomas Kelly Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Th'atoning work is done,
The Victim’s blood is shed,
And Jesus now is gone
His people’s cause to plead:
He stands in heav'n their great High Priest,
And bears their names upon His breast.
2 No temple made with hands
His place of service is;
In heav'n itself He stands,
A heavenly priesthood His:
In Him the shadows of the Law
Are all fulfilled, and now withdraw.
3 And though awhile He be
Hid from the eyes of men,
His people look to see
Their great High Priest again:
In brightest glory He will come,
And take His waiting people home. Used With Tune: CHRIST CHURCH

Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,801 hymnals Topics: Missions General; Psalm Adaptations; Soul Winning Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
does its successive journeys run,
his kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 To him shall endless prayer be made,
and praises throng to crown his head.
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
with every morning sacrifice.
3 People and realms of every tongue
dwell on his love with sweetest song,
and infant voices shall proclaim
their early blessings on his name.
4 Blessings abound where'er he reigns:
the prisoners leap to lose their chains,
the weary find eternal rest,
and all who suffer want are blest.
5 Let every creature rise and bring
the highest honors to our King,
angels descend with songs again,
and earth repeat the loud amen.
Psalter Hymnal, (Gray)

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored
Author: George Rawson Meter: 8.8.8.4 Appears in 186 hymnals Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored,
We keep the memory adored,
And show the death of our dear Lord,
Until he come.
His Body broken in our stead
Is here, in this memorial bread;
And so our feeble love is fed,
Until he come.
His fearful drops of agony,
His Life-blood shed for us we see:
The wine shall tell the mystery,
Until he come.
And thus that dark betrayal night,
With the last Advent we unite
The shame, the glory, by this rite,
Until he come.
Until the trump of God be heard,
Until the ancient graves be stirred,
And with the great commanding word,
The Lord shall come.
306
O blessèd hope! with this elate,
Let not our hearts be desolate,
But strong in faith, in patience wait,
Until he come!

Author: Walter Chalmers Smith, 1824-1908 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 211 hymnals Topics: Years A, B, and C Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.
2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might:
thy justice, like mountains high soaring above,
thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
3 To all, life thou givest, to both great and small;
in all life thou livest, the true life of all;
we blossom and flourish like leaves on the tree,
then wither and perish; but naught changeth thee.
4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
all laud we would render, O help us to see
'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee. Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Used With Tune: ST DENIO

The Head That Once Was Crowned with Thorns
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 511 hymnals Topics: All Saints' Day; Christ Ascension; Christ Grace; Christ King; Saints; Jesus Christ His Ascension Lyrics: 1 The Head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heaven affords
Is His, is His by right,
The King of Kings, and Lord of Lords,
And heaven's eternal Light:
3 The Joy of all who dwell above,
The Joy of all below
To whom He manifests His love,
And grants His name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
With all its grace, is given;
Their name an everlasting name,
Their joy the joy of heaven.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
They reign with Him above;
Their profit and their joy to know
The wonder of His love.
Amen. Scripture: Mark 15:17-18 Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS
The Head That Once Was Crowned with Thorns
Crown Him with many crowns
Author: Matthew Bridges Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 798 hymnals Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Crown Him with many crowns,
The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own:
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of Him who died for thee,
And hail Him as thy matchless King
Through all eternity.
Crown Him the Son of God
Before the worlds began,
And ye, who tread where He hath trod,
Crown him the Son of Man;
Who every grief hath known
That wrings the human breast,
And takes and bears them for His own,
That all in him may rest.
Crown Him the Lord of Life,
Who triumphed o'er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife
For those He came to save;
His glories now we sing
Who died, and rose on high,
Who died, eternal life to bring,
And lives that death may die.
Crown Him of lords the Lord,
Who over all doth reign,
Who once on earth, the Incarnate Word,
For ransomed sinners slain,
Now lives in realms of light,
Where saints with angels sing
Their songs before Him day and night,
Their God, Redeemer, King.
Crown Him the Lord of heaven,
Enthroned in worlds above;
Crown Him the King, to Whom is given
The wondrous name of Love.
Crown Him with many crowns,
As thrones before him fall,
Crown Him, ye kings, with many crowns,
For he is King of all.
