| Now hail we our Redeemer,Eternal Son of God,
 Born in the flesh to save us,
 And cleanse us in His blood.
 The Morning Star ascendeth,
 Light to the world He lendeth,
 Our Guide in grief and gloom.
 A man, of God begotten,Brought in the age of grace;
 Lo, all the earth is radiant
 With light, and hope, and peace.
 Our prison He demolished,
 Death’s power He abolished,
 And opened Heaven’s gate.
 O Jesus, grant us mercy,And grace on us bestow,
 To walk by Thine own guidance,
 Thy saving truth to know.
 For Thee our hearts are yearning,
 From worldly pleasures turning
 Unto Thy righteousness.
 Into Thy hand the FatherGave all, that we might be
 In bonds of faith united,
 And dedicate to Thee,
 A people through Thy merit
 Entitled to inherit
 Thy realm eternally.
