But You raised Him

You fixed the world in place
and rule over all from Your sacred throne.
You formed a people for Yourself
and through Moses and the prophets You spoke to them
of the Christ who fills all in all.

As it was written, He suffered and was killed,

but You raised Him from the dead
and He walked again with His chosen ones,
speaking to them of Your glorious kingdom.
You carried Him into heaven on the clouds
and made Him head over all things for the church,
seating Him at Your right hand
far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,
and above every name that is named,
not only in this age but also in the age to come.
