MEDIATOR OF THE NEW COVENANT

God has a better covenant in in mind
With better promises, now consonant
With Thine own blood, and therefore less confined,
O Mediator of the covenant!

This covenant would be entirely new
Because the first man proved recalcitrant
And through Thy blood this blessing is in view
O Mediator of the covenant!

Through Thee, its spirit, it is always fresh,
A covenant which no one shall supplant,
Inscribed on tables not of stone, but flesh,
O Mediator of the covenant!
