CHRIST

Among the dust of Palestine

He, come within our human span,

Displayed a worth that was divine

While God was glorified in man.

Between heaven’s glory and earth’s sod

The Son of man was crucified,

And through Golgotha’s torments God,

Regarding sin, was glorified.

As faithful women reached Christ’s tomb

The rising Sun dispelled the night -

God’s glory dwelt on Christ through whom

Men are accepted in God’s sight.

A Man is now at God’s right hand -

A Man is on the Father’s throne!

And Christians gladly understand

God’s thoughts secured in Christ alone.
