| 1. | Lo! in heaven Jesus sitting, |
| | Christ the Lord is there enthroned; |
| | As the man by God exalted, |
| | With God's glory He is crowned. |
| 2. | He hath put on human nature, |
| | Died according to God's plan, |
| | Resurrected with a body, |
| | And ascended as a man. |
| 3. | God in Him on earth was humbled, |
| | God with man was domiciled; |
| | Man in Him in heav'n exalted, |
| | Man with God is reconciled. |
| 4. | He as God with man is mingled, |
| | God in man is testified; |
| | He as man with God is blended, |
| | Man in God is glorified. |
| 5. | From the Glorified in heaven |
| | The inclusive Spirit came; |
| | All of Jesus' work and Person |
| | Doth this Spirit here proclaim. |
| 6. | With the Glorified in heaven |
| | Is the Church identified; |
| | By the Spirit of this Jesus |
| | Are His members edified. |
| 7. | Lo! a man is now in heaven |
| | As the Lord of all enthroned; |
| | This is Jesus Christ our Savior, |
| | With God's glory ever crowned! |
