How can it be, thou heavenly King,
That thou should’st man to glory bring,
Make us the partners of thy throne,
And give us an immortal crown?
O Lord, enlarge our scanty thought,
To know the wonders thou hast wrought,
Unloose our stammering tongues, to tell
Thy love immense, unsearchable.
First-born of many brethren, thou,
To thee both earth and heaven must bow;
Help us to thee our all to give;
Thine may we die, thine may we live.
