Hymn A & M 543- O Zion, open wide thy gates




1. O Zion, open wide thy gates,

let symbols disappear;

a Priest and Victim, both in one,

the Truth himself, is here.


2. No more the slaughtered beast 

must die;

behold, the Father's Son

his temple enters, soon himself 

for sinners to atone.


3. Conscious of hidden deity,

the lowly virgin brings

her newborn Babe, with two young 

doves,

her humble offerings.


4. There waiting Simeon sees at last

the saviour long desired,

and Anna welcomes Israel's hope,

with holy rapture fired.


5. But silent stood the mother blest

of the yet silent Word,

and pondering in her steadfast 

heart,

with speechless praise adored.


6. All glory to the Father be,

all glory to the Son,

all glory, holy Ghost, to thee,

while endless ages run.
