MFM Hymn 515

Darwalls 148th – 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4.

  1. Ascended Christ, who gained the glory that we sing, anointed and ordained, our prophet, priest, and King: by many tongues the church displays your power and praise in all her songs.
  2. No titles, thrones, or powers can ever rival yours;

no passing mood of ours can turn

aside your laws:

you reign above each other name of worth or fame,the Lord of love.

  1. Now from the Father’s side you make your people new; since for our sins you died our lives belong to you:

from our distress you set us free for purity and holiness.

  1. You call us to belong within one body here;

in weakness we are strong and all your gifts we share: in you alone we are complete and at your feet with joy bow down.

  1. All strength is in your hand, all power to you is given: all wisdom to command

in earth and hell and heaven: beyond all words creation sings the King of kings and Lord of lords.

-Christopher Idle
