¶Lyrics / Text

Text as used here: Hail the day that sees him rise, to his throne above the skies; Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, enters now the highest heaven. [Alleluia.] There for him high triumph waits; lift your heads, eternal gates! he hath conquered death and sin; take the King of glory in! [Alleluia.] Lo, the heaven its Lord receives, yet he loves the earth he leaves; though returning to his throne, still he calls mankind his own. [Alleluia.] See, he lifts his hands above; see, he shews the prints of love; hark, his gracious lips bestow blessings on his Church below. [Alleluia.] Still for us he intercedes, his prevailing death he pleads; near himself prepares our place, he the first-fruits of our race. [Alleluia.] Lord, though parted from our sight, far above the starry height, grant our hearts may thither rise, seeking thee above the skies. [Alleluia.]
