Words by Charles Wesley - 1742

lyrics

Hail the day that sees Him rise
To His throne above the skies
Christ, awhile to mortals given
Reascends His native heaven

There the glorious triumph waits
Lift your heads, eternal gates
Christ hath conquered death and sin
Take the King of glory in

Circled round with angel powers
Their triumphant Lord, and ours
Conqueror over death and sin
“Take the King of glory in!

Him though highest Heav’n receives
Still He loves the earth He leaves
Though returning to His throne
Still He calls mankind His own

See! He lifts His hands above
See! He shows the prints of love
Hark! His gracious lips bestow
Blessings on His church below


Ever upward let us move
Wafted on the wings of love
Looking when our Lord shall come
Longing, gasping after home

There we shall with Thee remain
Partners of Thy endless reign
There Thy face unclouded see
Find our heaven of heavens in Thee
