The Westminster hymnal : the only collection authorized by the hierarchy of England and Wales . JEterne Rex altissime. OTHOU eternal King most high !Who didst the Avorld redeem ;And conquering Death and Hell, receiveA dignity supreme. Thou, through the starry orbs, this day, Didst to Thy throne ascend ;Thenceforth to reign in sovereign power, And glory without end. There, seated in Thy majestj, To Thee submissive bowThe Heavn of Heavns, the earth beneath. The realms of Hell below. With treml)ling there tlie angels see The changed estate of men ;The flesh which sinnd by Flesh redeemd; Man in the Godhead reign. There, waiting for Thy faithful souls, Be Thou to us, O Lord !Our joy of joys while here we stay, In Heavn our great reward. Renew our strength ; our sins forgive ; Our miseries etflice :And lift our souls aloft to Thee, By Thy celestial grace. So, when Thou shinest on the clouds, With Thy angelic train,May we be saved from deadly doom And our lost crowns regain. To Christ returning gloriously With victory to Heaven,Praise Avith the Father evermore And Holy Ghost be given.
