1 WE thank Thee, Jesus, dearest Friend,
That Thou didst into heaven ascend,
O mighty God, Immanuel;
Make soul and body strong and well.
Hallelujah!

2 Now all His Christians can rejoice,
And sing His praise with cheerful voice:
Glory to God in heaven's high throne,
Our Brother is God's only Son.
Hallelujah!

3 Ascended to His throne on high,
He yet to us is always nigh;
True God and man He ever reigns,
And infinite in power remains.
Hallelujah!

4 Above all heavens in glory raised,
Forever by all angels praised,
All human beings rules our Lord,
All creatures must obey His word.
Hallelujah!

5 He rules and reigns at God's right hand,
And has all power at His command,
All things are subject to His rod--
The Son of man and Son of God.
Hallelujah!

6 The world, sin, Satan, death and hell
Are vanquished by Immanuel;
Dispute who will His mighty reign,
He still the Victor must remain.
Hallelujah!

7 The man who trusts in Him is blest,
And finds in Him eternal rest;
This world's allurements we despise
And fix on Christ alone our eyes.
Hallelujah!

8 We trust in Him, our Lord and God,
Who hath redeemed us by His blood;
He captive led captivity,
From bitter death to set us free.
Hallelujah!

9 We, therefore, heartily rejoice,
And sing His praise with cheerful voice:
Our Brother, our own flesh and blood,
Is God and King, our greatest Good.
Hallelujah!

10 Through Him we heirs of heaven are made;
O Brother, Christ! extend Thine aid,
That we may firmly trust in Thee,
And live through Thee eternally.
Hallelujah!

11 Amen, Amen, O Lord! we cry;
Do Thou, who art exalted high,
In Thy pure doctrine keep our hearts,
And shield us from the Devil's arts.
Hallelujah!

12 Come, blessed Lord, in glory come
To judge the world and take us home
Out of this vale of tears, that we
May live fore'er in heaven with Thee.
Hallelujah!

13 Amen, Amen, again we sing,
And long to be with Thee, our King,
Where with Thy angels we again
Shall sing in heavenly strains Amen!
Hallelujah!
