Our prison He demolished, Death’s power He abolished, And opened heaven’s gate. 3 O Jesus, grant us mercy, And grace on us bestow, To walk by Thine own guidance, Thy saving truth to know. For Thee our hearts are yearning, From worldly pleasures turning Unto Thy righteousness. 4 Into Thy hand the Father Gave all, that we might be In bonds of faith united, And dedicate to Thee, A people through Thy merit Entitled to inherit Thy realm eternally.

High the song of triumph swell! 5 Equal to the Father now, Though to dust Thou once didst bow, Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; When shall we its glories see? When shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine! Glorious in its light divine: Let not sin o'ercloud this light, Ever be our faith thus bright, Ever be our faith thus bright. Amen.
