From his celestial throne,
Above you starry skies,
The great eternal Son comes down,
To be a sacrifice.
Our sinful flesh he wears,
He sheds his vital blood;
The load of all our guilt he bears,
To reconcile to God.
The storms of wrath descend,
The billows o’er him roll;
And earth and hell their power combined,
T’ oppress his holy soul.
His suffering are our ease,
His stripes our health procure;
And his expiring agonies
Eternal bliss ensure.
