HYMN 57.
Jesus! exhalted far on high!
To whom a Name is given,
A Name surpassing ev'ry name
That's nam'd in earth or Heav'n.
Before whose throne shall ev'ry race
Bow down with one accord;
Before whose throne shall ev'ry tongue
Confess that Thou art Lord.
Jesus! who in the form of God
Did'st equal honour claim;
Yet, to redeem our guilty souls,
Did'st stoop to death and shame;
May we be meek, and humbly learn
To emulate Thy love;
So shall we bear Thine image here,
And share Thy throne above.
