Look up, my soul, in Christ behold,
perfections human and divine;
Greatness, simplicity and love,
In all his works and actions shine.
Behold him in a manger laid,
Extended, dying on the tree,
Then rising from the dreary grave,
And hope he died and rose for thee.
Behold him seated on his throne,
With myriads bowing at his feet;
Abased, exalted, yet the same,
In grace and mercy infinite.
Honour supreme to him be given,
Once sunk so low, now raised so high;
Angels and men his glory sing,
In time and through eternity.
