Twin Princes of the Courts
guitar chords lyrics
Twin princes of the courts of heaven,
To you by Christ our Lord was given
With all the apostolic band,
A place of honour at his hand.
For he who would the Father see
Shall there behold him gloriously,
And who was least on earth below
Shall there the highest glories know.
On earth you bore the gospel light
And shed its rays o'er man's dark night,
That Christ, our life, our truth, our way,
Might bring us to eternal day.
No arts of subtle speech were heard
When, preaching Christ, you spoke his word:
Proclaiming faith in him who died,
No arts of subtle speech were heard
When, preaching Christ, you spoke his word:
Proclaiming faith in him who died,
You led disciples to his side.
In faith you yielded up your breath
To him the victor over death,
And found in him, the risen Lord,
Salvation and a full reward.
To God the Father glory be,
And praise, O Jesu Christ, to thee,
Whom with the Spirit we adore,
One Lord, one God, for evermore. Amen.
