Let all together praise our God Upon His lofty throne; For He uncloses heav'n today And gives to us His Son. He lays aside His majesty And seems as nothing worth, And takes on Him a servant's form, who made the heav'n and earth. Behold the wonderful exchange Our Lord with us doth make! Lo, He assumes our flesh and blood, And we of heav'n partake. The glorious gates of paradise The Angel guards no more; This day again those gates unfold. With praise our God adore!
