The
One by whom Man’s course began
And
through whom Man has breath
Because
of, and in love for, Man
Poured
out His soul to death.
Now
grace can overcome sin’s power
Like
an advancing flood
Since
Jesus, in that solemn hour,
Poured
out His precious blood.
Ascended
then to God’s right hand,
Acclaimed
by heaven’s host
He
thought of all His lovers and
Poured
out the Holy Ghost.
He
is in heaven but His name
Is
loved by saints in light -
This
is an ointment, they exclaim,
Poured
out for our delight.
One man ...poured out...for all mankind!
