Hymn 372 – HEAD of the Church triumphant | C&S English Hymnary

1. HEAD of the Church triumphant We joyfully adore Thee, Till Thou appear, Thy members here Shall sing like those in glory We lift our hearts and voices With blessed anticipation And cry aloud, and give to God The praise of our salvation. 2. While in affliction's furnace And passing through the fire Thy love we praise in grateful lays Which ever brings us higher We clap our hands, exulting In Thine almighty favour The love divine, that made us Thine Shall keep us Thine for ever. 3. Thou dost conduct Thy people Through torrents of tempation Nor will we fear, while Thou art near The fire of tribulations The world, with sin and satan In vain our march opposes By Thee we shall break through them all And sing the song of Moses. 4. By faith we see the glory To which Thou shall restore us The world despise, for that high prize Which Thou hast set before us And, if Thou count us worthy We each, with dying Stephen Shall see Thee stand at God's right hand To call us up to heaven AMEN
