In those regenerated by the Lord
|
|
| 1. | In those regenerated by the Lord |
| | There is an inner knowledge bountiful; |
| | Thus we the outward teachings do not |
| | need, |
| | But God we inwardly may know in |
| | full. |
| 2. | Eternal life, the highest and the best, |
| | Possesses full divine capacity, |
| | That by this life God's knowledge we |
| | may have |
| | More than by knowledge given |
| | outwardly. |
| 3. | The law of life is put within our mind |
| | And on our heart 'tis written |
| | sovereignly, |
| | Inwardly ruling us that God we know |
| | More than by teachings given |
| | outwardly. |
| 4. | Holy anointing in our spirit dwells, |
| | Showing the things of God to mind and |
| | heart; |
| | By this anointing we God's knowledge |
| | have |
| | More than man's teachings can to us |
| | impart. |
| 5. | We have the triune God indwelling us, |
| | Living and acting, working all the time, |
| | That by the inner sense we have of Him |
| | God we may know in magnitude |
| | sublime. |
| 6. | This inner knowledge obviates the need |
| | Of outward knowledge, human |
| | eloquence, |
| | But in the spirit we must ever live |
| | And walk according to the inner sense. |
| 7. | The more we live in Christ, the life |
| | divine, |
| | And by the inner consciousness |
| | behave, |
| | The more we'll have the inward |
| | knowledge true, |
| | And on our heart God will His Son |
| | engrave. |
| 8. | 'Tis by this living inward knowledge |
| | gained |
| | That fellowship with God in life we |
| | hold; |
| | 'Tis by this hidden knowledge thus |
| | obtained |
| | God unto us His fulness doth unfold. |
