John 17:5: Jesus, Thy prayer is answer'd now
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Jesus, Thy prayer is answer'd now.
The Man, Jehovah's fellow Thou
And seated on Thy father's throne.
Bright Effluence of the light Divine,
Thou dost in Thy own glory shine
From all eternity Thy own:
The Man who did our world redeem
Is clothed with majesty supreme,
Thy body now is glorified;
Thou wear'st Thy mediatorial crown,
That we may in Thy right sit down,
And reign exalted at Thy side.
