Lyrics

Enthroned is Je­sus now,
Upon His hea­ven­ly seat;
The kingly crown is on His brow,
The saints are at His feet.

In shin­ing white they stand,
A great and count­less throng;
A pal­my scep­ter in each hand,
On ev­ery lip a song.

They sing the Lamb of God,
Once slain on earth for them;
The Lamb, through whose aton­ing blood,
Each wears his dia­dem.

Thy grace, O Ho­ly Ghost,
Thy bless­èd help sup­ply,
That we may join that ra­di­ant host,
Triumphant in the sky.
