O Lord Jesus, Thy redeemed ones

Are Thy Body and Thy Bride;

As Thy fulness, Thine expression,

In her Thou art glorified.

Thou, her all in all forever,

She Thy riches doth declare;

Thou dost fully saturate her

And Thy glory with her share.

God with man completely blended,

Mystery of godliness,

God in glory, full, resplendent,

Man, His dwelling, doth express.

'Tis a vessel universal

All God's fulness to express;

All His beauty manifesting,

Mingled with His holiness.

'Tis a living composition

Of the saints He hath transformed;

As the pearls and stones most precious,

To His image they're conformed:

From the throne of God, its center,

Flows the living water free;

Christ the tree of life doth flourish,

Bearing fruit abundantly.

'Tis th' eternal golden lampstand,

Holding Christ, the lamp of light;

God in Christ the light of glory

As the Spirit shineth bright!

'Tis the ultimate expression —

Man in God and God in man;

'Tis their mutual habitation,

Goal of God's eternal plan.
