Now blest in heavenly places,
In Christ at God's right hand;
And filled with all His fullness,
Complete in Him to stand.
Sing to the praise and glory
Of Him Who thus hath shown
Such gracious love and mercy,
To call us for His own.
As looking to Christ Jesus,
In Whom we find our peace;
Our praise and adoration,
And love to Him increase.
May we, who thus are looking,
Walk worthy of the grace,
The blessed hope and calling,
Until we see His face.
O help us, by Thy mercy,
The shield of faith to take;
To walk in love and meekness,
For our Redeemer's sake.
Then shall we be all pleasing,
As we in love abound;
To each and all forbearing,
May we in Christ be found.
