Attend, ye children, of your God,
Ye heirs of glory, hear;
let accents so divine as these
Engage the attentive ear:—
Baptised into your Saviour’s death,
Your souls to sin must die;
With Christ your Lord ye live anew,
With Christ ascend on high.
There, by his Father's side he sits
Enthron'd, divinely fair;
Yet owns himself your Brother still,
And your Forerunner there.
Rise from these earthly trifles; rise,
On wings of faith and love;
In heaven your choicest treasure lies,
And be your hearts above.
