We’ll praise Thee, glorious Lord, Who died to set us free, No earthly songs can joy afford Like heavenly melody. Love, that no suffering stayed, We’ll praise, true love divine; Love that for us atonement made, Love that has made us Thine. Love in Thy lonely life Of sorrow here below; Thy words of grace, with mercy rife, Make grateful praises flow. Love, that on death’s dark vale Its sweetest odors spread, Where sin o’er all seemed to prevail Redemption’s glory shed. And now we see Thee risen, Who once for us hast died, Seated above the highest heaven: The Father’s glorified. Soon wilt Thou take Thy throne, Thy foes Thy footstool made, And take us with Thee for Thine own, In glory love displayed. Jesus, we wait for Thee, With Thee to have our part; What can full joy and blessing be But being where Thou art?
