In spirit, in the church we see The high estate we're destined for. It's higher, vaster, more profound Than anything we've seen before. |
2 |
It's not a view in doctrine bare But an unveiling of the Christ. He's marvelous and far beyond Our mental thought or power to share. |
3 |
He's rich, unlimited, profound, Immeasurable, and marvelous. Yet 'tis a greater wonder still He needs heirs of salvation — us. |
4 |
God has accomplished many things — He's planned, created, and brought forth. The Son is now appointed Heir, Administrator of God's worth. |
5 |
But in th' economy of God There is not one, but many sons. One is the firstborn Son of God With many other living ones. |
6 |
Christ will inherit all God's things, And we're the heirs of God with Christ. We're growing now to be matured; As heirs we'll soon be legalized. |
7 |
We're joint-heirs with the firstborn Son, Inheriting the universe. We're in this corporation vast — All partners of Christ and the church. |
8 |
In spirit, in the church, we see Our calling of unrivaled worth. We're destined, not to go to heaven. We're destined to be kings on earth. |
9 |
We're paupers, yet we're glorious kings. Inheriting the kingdom vast, The earth, God's throne, and e'en all things And all the Father is and has. |
