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!
