1. Lord, enthroned in heavenly splendor,

first begotten from the dead.

Thou alone, our strong defender,

liftest up thy people’s head.

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Jesus, true and living bread!

Jesus, true and living bread!

*2. Here our humblest homage pay we,

here in loving reverence bow;

here for faith’s discernment pray we

lest we fail to know thee now.

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia

Thou are here, we ask not how.

Thou are here, we ask not how.

*3. Though the lowliest form doth veil thee

as of old in Bethlehem,

here as there thine angels hail thee,

branch and flower of Jesse’s stem.

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

We in worship join with them.

We in worship join with them.

4. Paschal Lamb, thine offering,

finished once for all when thou was slain,

in its fullness undiminished

shall for ever more remain.

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Cleansing us from every stain.

Cleansing us from every stain.

5. Life imparting heavenly Manna,

smitten Rock with streaming side,

heaven and earth with loud hosanna

worship thee, the Lamb who died.

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Risen, ascended, glorified!

Risen, ascended, glorified!
