Unclouded heaven's in thy face, Thou venerable Lamb. 2 Tho' thou wast rich in angel's songs, Thou willingly wast born To feel the rage of mortal Ttongues, Their ridicule and scorn. 3 Tho' thou wast rich in pow'r supreme, Yet didst thou condescend, From worms of earth to suffer shame, And insults from the fiend. 4 Tho' thou wast rich in righteousness, Divinely pure within; Yet didst thou feel hell's deep distress, When made our curse and sin. 5 Tho' thou wast infinitely high And rich, yet didst thou take The deepest shame and poverty, And for the sinner's sake: 6 That, thro' thy poverty and loss, We might be rich and blest; And, by the labours of thy cross, Might gain eternal rest. 7 Inrich'd by all thy loss and smart, Thy heav'n's on man bestow'd; Witness'd, when from thy bleeding heart The blood and water flow'd. 8 Our dearest Lord, we bless thy grace, Thy wond'rous love admire; To see the beauties of thy face, May all the world desire. 9 Live Jesus, live for evermore, Whilst all the sons of God Thy glorious person shall adore, And bless thy grace and blood.
