See, from on high, a light divine
On Je­sus’ head descend;
And hear the sacred voice from Heav’n,
That bids us all attend:

This is My well belovèd Son,
Proclaimed the voice divine:
Hear Him, His heavenly Fa­ther said,
For all His words are Mine.

His mission thus confirmed from Hea­ven,
The great Messiah came,
And heav’nly wisdom taught to man,
In God the Fa­ther’s name.

The path of heav’nly peace He showed,
That leads to bliss on high,
Where all His faithful followers here
Shall live, no more to die.

O may we then, who own Him Lord,
And His loved name profess,
By all our words and actions prove
That we His mind possess.
