Dass wir den Heiland küssen:
Komm, stelle dich doch ein!
[HYMN FOR ASCENSION-DAY.]
God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
Psa. xlvii. 5.
Lo! God to heaven ascendeth!
Throughout its regions vast,
With shouts triumphant blendeth
The trumpet’s thrilling blast:
Sing praise to Christ the Lord,
Sing praise with exultation!
