4 O, thinkest thou his Father’s love

Shone round him then with fainter rays

Than now, when, throned all height above,

Unceasing voices hymn his praise?

5 Go, sufferer, calmly meet the woes

Which God’s own mercy bids thee bear;

Then, rising as thy Saviour rose,

Go, his eternal victory share.

323.
