Thou, to our woe who down didst come
Who one with us wouldst be,
Wilt lift us to thy heavenly home,
Wilt make us one with thee.
Our earthly garments thou hast worn,
And we thy robes shall wear!
Our mortal burdens thou hast borne,
And we thy bliss may bear.
Oh, mighty grace! our life to live
To make our earth divine;
Oh, mighty grace! thy heaven to give
And lift our life to thine!
0h strange the gifts and marvelous,
By thee received and given!
Thou tookest woe and death from us,
And we receive thy heaven!
