O God, Thou hast
engaged our hearts
With Christ Thy well-beloved Son;
Thy love a holy joy imparts,
A joy which He for us hath won.
Assured in faith we enter now
Thy presence, where,
most blessed God,
Thy glory rests upon His brow,
Who brought us nigh
to Thee by blood.
To Him Thy voice
from out the cloud
Once spake Thy deep, Thy full delight;
And now without a veil to shroud,
In Him shines forth Thy glory bright.
'Tis Jesus fills that holy place
Where glory dwells,
and Thy deep love
In its own fulness
(known through grace)
Rests where He lives,
in heaven above.
Yet, midst Thine own the Spirit still
Bears witness of His glory there,
And from the sphere
which He doth fill
Brings knowledge
of His fulness here.
Our God we bless Thee,
Father Thou
Of Him Thy well-beloved Son;
As blest in Him before Thee bow,
And joy in all that love has done.
