I am rising up where a crown is awaiting;
I'm ascending in fine light, I'm ascending with my Christ.
I'll be singing praises to the Lord above!

I am rising. there a crown is awaiting.
I'm ascending in fine light,

I'm ascending to my home on high,
I rise with Christ to my celestial home.

Every day I want my love to grow intensely,
Every day I will be faithful, more and more;
His abundant grace will be my only resource,
Our celestial Father grants His grace to us.

I am satisfied when I give hope to sinners,
Poor and rich no matter what the case may be;
Jesus died upon the cross and took their burdens,
And He gave humanity God's salvation.

And close thine eyes against the light;
Poor sinner, harden not your heart,
Be saved, oh, tonight.

To bless thy long-deluded sight;
