8.7.8.7.4.7.

Jesus Christ the faithful witness and the first begotten of the dead.  Rev. 1 : 5

1 f Lord, enthroned in heav’nly splendour,

mf First begotten from the dead, 

Thou alone, our strong Defender,

Liftest up Thy people’s head

cr Alleluia, Alleluia

f Jesus, True and Living Bread!.

2 mf Here our humblest homage pay we;

f Here in loving reverence bow;

mf Here, for faith’s discernment pray we,

Lest we fail to know Thee now,

Alleluia, Alleluia

f Thou art here we ask not now.

3 mp Though the lowliest form doth veil Thee

As of old in Bethlehem,

cr Here as there Thine angels hail Thee,

Branch and Flower of Jesse’s stem,

Alleluia, Alleluia

We in worship join with them.

4. Paschal Lamb, Thine Off’ring finished,

Once for all when Thou wast slain,

In its fullness undiminished

Shall for evermore remain,

Alleluia, Alleluia

Cleansing souls from every stain.

5. Life-imparting Heav’nly Manna,

Stricken Rock with streaming side

Heav’n and earth with loud Hosanna,

Worship Thee, the Lamb who died,

Alleluia, Alleluia,

Ris’n, ascended, glorified!

Amen.
