Hymn 348 – THOU art gone up on high | C&S English Hymnary

1. THOU art gone up on high To massions in the skies And round Thy Throne unceasingly But we are lingering here With sin and care oppressed Lord, send Thy promised Comforter And lead us to our rest. 2. Thou art gone upon high But Thou dist first come down Through earth‘s most bitter misery To pass unto Thy Crown And girt with griefs and fear Our onward course must be But only let this path of tears Lead us at last to Thee. 3. Thou art gone up on high But Thou shalt come again With all the bright ones of the sky Attendant in Thy train Lord, by Thy saving power So make us live and die That we may stand in that dread hour At Thy right Hand on high AMEN
