O height, O depth of love!
Thou one with us on Calvary,
We one with Thee above.
Thou didst from heaven come down,
With us of flesh and blood partake,
In all our misery one.
Confessed and borne by Thee;
The gall, the curse, the wrath were Thine,
To set Thy members free.
Head of the Church Thou art;
Nor life nor death, nor depth nor height,
Thy saints and Thee can part.
This wondrous mystery,
That Thou in heaven with us art one,
And we are one with Thee.
When, seated on Thy throne,
Thou shalt to wondering worlds display
That Thou with us art one.
