Above the Starry Spheres

Author: Ambrose of Milan, 340-397; Edward Caswall & others Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Above the starry spheres, To where He was before, Christ had gone up, the Father’s gift Upon the Church to pour. 2. At length had fully come, On mystic circle borne Of seven times seven revolving days, The Pentecostal morn. 3. When, as the Apostles knelt At the third hour in prayer, A sudden rushing sound proclaimed That God Himself was there. 4. Forthwith a tongue of fire Is seen on every brow, Each heart receives the Father’s light, The Word’s enkindling glow. 5. The Holy Ghost on all Is mightily outpoured, Who straight in divers tongues declare The wonders of the Lord. 6. While strangers of all climes Flock round from far and near, And their own tongue, wherever born, All with amazement hear. 7. But Judah, faithless still, Denies the hand divine; And, mocking, jeers the saints of Christ As full of new made wine. 8. Till Peter, in the midst, By Joel’s ancient word, Rebukes their unbelief, and wins Three thousand to the Lord. 9. The Father and the Son And Spirit we adore, O may the Spirit’s gifts be poured On us forevermore. Used With Tune: ST. MICHAEL Text Sources: Translation: Lyra Catholica, 1849, by the compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1873
