From that bright world where seraphs join,
In songs and services divine,
Where streams of purest pleasures flow,
Jesus descends, and dwells below.
No glittering gems his robes adorn,
He meets with cruelty and scorn;
He loads of guilt and sorrow bears,
Is bathed in sweat and blood and tears.
Exposed his people long had been
To sin and wrath, and endless pain;
Bot lo, he dies to set them free,
Oh could I say, he died for me!
