English text
Jesus, the Savior from above,
The Father's deep, descending Love
Reached us, the lower parts of earth,
And raised us to a heavenly birth :
He who ascends to glory is the same,
As humbled to the earth, from heaven came.
Above the highest heavens far,
Earth's lower parts now risen are ;
When God, who put our nature on,
Ascended, the triumphant Man,
Where thrones, dominions, powers, and angels fall
Before His Face, as filling all in all.
Pre-eminence to Jesus given,
To fill all things in earth and heaven
The dispensation now is come,
When God has gathered all things home;
All things in love are gathered into one,
Where heaven and earth make one beloved Son.
Now Jesus fills all things, we know;
All things above, and all below;
That He fills all things, we are sure,
Hence all things now to us are pure:
In faith's idea no vacuum we find,
For he fills all, as God's eternal Mind.
Nothing but Jesus now we view;
Old things are lost, and all things new:
He fills our heart, our eye, our ear,
And nought but Jesus doth appear.
O holy Mystery! Here ends our want,
Our griefs, our sorrows, troubles, and complaint.
