Wide unfold the radiant scene, Take the King of glory in! 2 Him tho' highest heaven receives, Still he loves the earth he leaves; Tho' returning to his throne, Still he calls mankind his own: Still for us he intercedes, Prevalent his death he pleads; Next himself prepares our place, Harbinger of human race. 3 Master (may we ever say) Taken from our head to day; See thy faithful servants, see, Ever gazing up to thee! Grant, tho' parted from our sight, High above yon azure height: Grant our souls may thither rise, Foll'wing thee beyond the skies. 4 Ever upward let us move, Wafted on the wings of love; Looking when our Lord shall come, Longing, gasping after home, There we shall with thee remain, Partners of thine endless reign; There thy face unclouded see, Find our heav'n of heav'n in thee.

Where's now thy boasted pow'r and might? We feel no more the dread remorse, Nor can thy terrors us affright. 6 Glory to our incarnate God! We're sav'd in him, the work is done; He leads us, by the Saviour's blood, Up to the glories of his throne.
