Jesus Christ
All history is incomprehensible without Christ
He being the condescension of divinity
And the exaltation of humanity
In His life, Christ is an example
Showing us how to live,
In His death, He is a sacrifice, satisfying for our sins
In His resurrection, a conqueror;
In His ascension; a king
In His intercession a high priest
The nature of His existence is mysterious, I admit;
But this mystery meets the wants of man-
Reject it and the world is an inexplicable riddle;
Believe it, and the history of our race is satisfactorily explained.
He is God to whom we can approach without pride
And before whom we may abase ourselves without despair
Every step towards Christ kills a doubt.
Every thought, word, and deed for Him
Carries you away from discouragement,
The name of Christ- the one great word-
Well worth all languages in earth or heaven.
As the permit of the seal on the wax
Is the express image of the seal itself,
So Christ is the express image
The perfect representation Of God
An era in human history is the life of Jesus
And its immense influence for good leaves all the perversion
And superstition that has occurred almost harmless
He being the condescension of divinity
And the exaltation of humanity
In His life, Christ is an example
Showing us how to live,
In His death, He is a sacrifice, satisfying for our sins
In His resurrection, a conqueror;
In His ascension; a king
In His intercession a high priest
The nature of His existence is mysterious, I admit;
But this mystery meets the wants of man-
Reject it and the world is an inexplicable riddle;
Believe it, and the history of our race is satisfactorily explained.
He is God to whom we can approach without pride
And before whom we may abase ourselves without despair
Every step towards Christ kills a doubt.
Every thought, word, and deed for Him
Carries you away from discouragement,
The name of Christ- the one great word-
Well worth all languages in earth or heaven.
As the permit of the seal on the wax
Is the express image of the seal itself,
So Christ is the express image
The perfect representation Of God
An era in human history is the life of Jesus
And its immense influence for good leaves all the perversion
And superstition that has occurred almost harmless
