EN 5359 Beyond the Glittering, Starry Skies
1Tim.3.16
Versi Version 1
1
Beyond the glittering starry skies,
Far as th’eternal hills,
There, in those boundless worlds of light,
Our great Redeemer dwells.
2
Legions of angels strong and fair,
In countless armies shine,
At His right hand with golden harps,
To offer songs divine.
3
“Hail, Prince!” they cry, “for ever hail!
Whose unexampled love
Moved Thee to quit those glorious realms,
And royalties above.”
4
While He did condescend on earth
To suffer rude disdain,
They cast their honors at His feet,
And waited in His train.
5
Through all His travels here below
They did His steps attend!
Oft gazed and wondered where at last
This scene of love would end.
6
They saw His heart transfixed with wounds,
His crimson sweat and gore,
They saw Him break the bars of death,
Which none e’er brake before.
7
They brought His chariot from above,
To bear Him to His throne,
Clapped their triumphant wings and cried,
“The glorious work is done!”
