Christ, exalted, is our song

Author: Kent Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #145 (1844) Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ Lyrics: 1 Christ exalted is our song, Hymned by all the blood-bought throng; To his throne our shouts shall rise; God with us by sacred ties. 2 Shout, believer, to thy God! He has once the wine-press trod; Peace procured by blood divine; Cancelled all thy sins and mine. 3 Here thy bleeding wounds are healed; Sin condemned and pardon sealed; Grace her empire still maintains; Christ without a rival reigns. 4 [Through corruption, felt within, Darkness, deadness, guilt, and sin, Still to Jesus turn thy eyes – Israel’s hope and sacrifice.] 5 In thy Surety thou art free; His dear hands were pierced for thee; With his spotless vesture on, Holy as the Holy One. 6 O the heights, the depths of grace, Shining with meridian blaze! Here the sacred records show Sinners black but comely too. 7 Saints dejected, cease to mourn; Faith shall soon to vision turn; Ye the kingdom shall obtain, And with Christ exalted reign.
