Hail The Day That Saw Him Rise,
Ravished From His People’s Eyes;
Christ, Awhile To Mortals Given,
Re-Ascends His Native Heaven.
There The Glorious Triumph Waits
“Lift Your Heads, You Heavenly Gates;
Wide Unfold The Radiant Scene,
Take The King Of Glory In.”
He, Whom Highest Heaven Receives,
Ever Loves The Friends He Leaves;
Though Returning To His Throne,
Still He Calls His Saints His Own;
Still For Us He Intercedes,
Prevalent His Death He Pleads;
Near Himself Prepares A Place,
Harbinger Of Human Race.
Taken From Our Eyes To-Day,
Master, Hear Us When We Pray;
See Thy Needy Servants, See,
Ever Gazing Up To Thee:
Grant, Though Parted From Our Sight,
Far Above Yon Azure Hight,
Grant Our Hearts May Thither Rise,
Follow Thee Beyond The Skies.
Ever Upward Let Us Move,
Wafted On The Wings Of Love;
Looking When The Lord Shall Come,
Longing, Reaching After Home;
There For Ever To Remain,
Partners Of Thy Endless Reign;
There Thy Face Unclouded See,
Find Our Heaven Of Heavens In Thee.
