There he wins our full salvation, dies that we may die no more; then arising, lives for ever, reigning where he was before. 4 High on yon celestial mountains stands his sapphire throne, all bright, midst unending alleluias bursting from the saints in light; Sion's people tell his praises, victor after hard-won fight. 5 Bring your harps, and bring your incense, sweep the string and pour the lay; let the earth proclaim his wonders, King of that celestial day; he the Lamb once slain is worthy, who was dead, and lives for ay. 6 Laud and honour to the Father, laud and honour to the Son, laud and honour to the Spirit, ever Three and ever One, consubstantial, co-eternal, while unending ages run.
