Harwell. D. The Return to Heaven. |
The Return to Heaven. (353) Jesus comes, his conflict over, -- Comes to claim his great reward; Angels round the Victor hover, Crowding to behold their Lord; Haste, ye saints! your tribute bring, Crown him, everlasting King. 2 Yonder throne for him erected, Now becomes the Victor's seat; Lo, the man on earth rejected! Angels worship at his feet: Haste, ye saints! your tribute bring, Crown him, everlasting King. 3 Day and night they cry before him, -- "Holy, holy, holy, Lord!" All the powers of heaven adore him, All obey his sovereign word; Haste, ye saints! your tribute bring, Crown him, everlasting King. Thomas Kelly, 1804.
