Lord, Enthroned in Heavenly Splendor

1Lord, enthroned in heavenly splendor,
First begotten from the dead,
You alone, our strong defender,
Lifting up Your people's head.

RefrainAlleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia,
Jesus, true and living Bread!
We in worship, cleansing souls from
Risen, ascended, glorified!

2Though the lowliest form now veil You
As of old in Bethlehem,
Here as there Your angels hail You,
Branch and flower of Jesse's stem.

3Paschal Lamb, Your offering finished,
Once for all when You were slain,
In its fullness undiminished
Shall forever more remain.

4Life-imparting heavenly manna,
Stricken rock with streaming side,
Heaven and earth with loud hosanna
Worship You, the Crucified.
