Lord, enthroned in heav’nly splendour,

1.

Lord, enthroned in heav’nly splendour,

First begotten from the dead,

Thou alone, our strong Defender,

Liftest up Thy people’s head

Alleluia Alleluia

Jesus, True and Living Bread!

2.

Here our humblest homage pay we;

Here in loving reverence bow;

Here, for faith’s discernment pray we,

Lest we fail to know Thee now,

Alleluia Alleluia

Thou art here we ask not how.

3.

Though the lowliest form doth veil Thee

As of old in Bethlehem.

Here as there Thine angels hail Thee,

Branch and Flower of Jesse’s stem

Alleluia Alleluia

We in worship join with them.

4.

Paschal lamb, Thine Offering, finished,

Once for all when Thou wast stain,

In its fullness undiminished

Shall for evermore remain,

Alleluia Alleluia

Cleansing souls from every stain.

5.

Life-imparting Heav’nly Manna

Sticken Rock with streaming side

Heav’n and earth with loud Hosanna,

Worship Thee, the Lamb who died,

Alleluia Alleluia

Ris’n, ascended, glorified!
