The Eternal Son Lyrics

From highest Heav'n the eternal Son
With God the Father ever One
Came down to suffer and to die
For love of sinful man He bore
Our human griefs and troubles sore
Our load of guilt and misery

Rejoice, ye saints of God, and praise
The Lamb who died, His flock to raise
From sin and everlasting woe
With angels round the throne above

In darkest shades of night we lay
Without a beam to guide our way
Or hope of aught beyond the grave

From highest Heav'n the eternal Son
With God the Father ever One
From highest Heav'n the eternal Son
With God the Father ever One

Rejoice, ye saints of God, rejoice
Sing out, and praise with cheerful voice
The Lamb whom Heav'n and earth adore
To Him who gave His only Son

But He has brought us life and light
And opened Heaven to our sight
And lives forever strong to save

O tell the wonders of His love
The joys that from His mercy flow
To God the Spirit, with Them One
Be praise and glory evermore
