The image of the Father God,
|
|
| 1 | The image of the Father God, |
| | Lord, we behold in Thee; |
| | The fulness of the Godhead true |
| | In Thee dwells bodily. |
| 2. | Lord, Thou art God's eternal Word |
| | With life divine in Thee; |
| | In Thee His grace we all receive |
| | With His reality. |
| 3. | Effulgence of God's glory true, |
| | The Son of God art Thou; |
| | The very substance of Himself |
| | In Thee we all avow. |
| 4. | Embodiment of God Thou art, |
| | And with Him ever one; |
| | In Thee is God expressed to us |
| | Beyond comparison. |
| 5. | God we enjoy in Thee, dear Lord, |
| | As life and everything; |
| | To Thee and God our heartfelt thanks |
| | And praise we'll ever bring. |
