Jesus, Thou dear redeeming Lord,
The kingdom of Thy peace restored
Let all Thy followers perceive,
And happy in Thy Spirit live,
Retain the grace with Thee bestow'd,
The favour, and the power of God.

Give all Thy saints to find in Thee
The fulness of the Deity,
His nature, life, and mind to prove
In perfect holiness and love;
Fountain of grace Thyself make known,
With God and man for ever one.

Still with and in Thy people dwell,
Thy gracious plenitude reveal,
Till coming with Thy heavenly train
We eye to eye behold the Man,
And share Thy majesty Divine,
And mount our thrones encircling Thine.
