ALL PRAISE TO JESUS CHRIST.

 

All praise to Jesus Christ! Praise Jesus, the source of life and salvation.
He is the Church’s rock and it’s sure foundation.
The Church stands upon the Apostle’s doctrine. Christ is the Cornerstone.
The Scriptures teach that salvation is found through faith in him alone.

Jesus is the fulfillment of the Father’s promise of redemption that he made.
Through the Son, the debt and punishment for sin would be paid.
The Son came in the flesh to undo the first Adam’s sin.
He would destroy the powers of sin and death and bring life without end.

All praise to Jesus, who came. The promise of salvation to fulfill.
The Second Adam. The obedient Son who came to do his Father’s will.
He did not come in pomp or power, but was born of humble birth.
Jesus took on our form to dwell with all who live on the earth.

The mighty King laid aside his crown and came to suffer in our place.
He bore the cross and died so that all would be saved by his grace.
Though he suffered and died, in victory he was raised from the dead.
The devil bruised his heel. The victorious Christ crushed the devil’s head.

Christ the Victor ascended to heaven and is seated upon the golden throne.
The saints in heaven and on earth give praise to him alone.
He has left the Church his Spirit. Through the Spirit, the Church will endure.
May his Church be faithful and always keep it’s doctrine pure.

The Lord continues to bless his Church. With his people he shall abide.
Through the Word, the Spirit will always teach, comfort and guide.
Christ feeds his people with his body and blood, which strengthens the soul.
His Spirit points to Christ and keeps before believers the heavenly goal.

When this pilgrim journey is over, we’ll join him in the Kingdom above.
With the sacred assembly, we’ll sing and rejoice in his grace and love.
Yes! We’ll stand with that blessed assembly and we’ll joyfully sing.
“All praise be given to Jesus Christ, our Lord and King!”

Now to him, the blessed Lord who in victory rose up from the grave.
To Jesus Christ, who by grace came to redeem and to save.
Praise to him and to the Father and to the Spirit through eternity.
Praise be given to the blessed holy Trinity.
