| 1 | Christ the Savior hath ascended |
| | | To the heavens far above, |
| | Crowned with glory and with honor |
| | | By the Father God in love; |
| | He hath made Him Head of all things, |
| | | His supremacy to prove. |
| 2 | From this Christ to God ascended |
| | | Hath the Spirit been outpoured, |
| | Poured upon the Church, His Body, |
| | | That His members be empow’red; |
| | Thus the Lord of all in heaven |
| | | Thru His Church will be adored. |
| 3 | In the flesh by incarnation, |
| | | Into man He God hath brought; |
| | By His death and resurrection, |
| | | Into God He man hath brought; |
| | God and man together mingled, |
| | | In Himself is fully wrought. |
| 4 | Now in heaven by ascension |
| | | He is seated on the throne; |
| | All the lordship, all the headship, |
| | | He Himself doth fully own; |
| | And by pouring out His Spirit, |
| | | He as such might be made known. |
| 5 | By this outpour, His descension |
| | | On the Church was realized; |
| | ’Tis by this, that in His Spirit |
| | | All the Church He hath baptized; |
| | Thus the baptism of the Spirit |
| | | Was forever actualized. |
| 6 | Hallelujah, ‘tis accomplished, |
| | | And accomplished once for all! |
| | Hallelujah, we’re included, |
| | | All included, great or small! |
| | Praise Him, He hath sent the Spirit |
| | | And baptized the Church withal! |
