God who at sun dry times, in olden days,
Spoke through prophetic lips, made known His ways,
In the incarnate Son, to whom all knees must bow,
Spoke to make known Himself is speaking now!
Jesus of all things heir, God hath ordained;
All worlds were made by Him, by Him sustained.
Brightness of Glory He, Effulgence of God’s love,
Image of Deity, sent from above.
When He had purged our sins with His own blood,
He took His seat at the right hand of God.
There at His Father’s side-the Majesty on High-
He sits who was made man, for man to die!
Angels were praising Him-sang at His birth
"Glory to God on High, Peace on the earth!"
Angels shall praise again when, in the Victor’s train,
"Heirs of salvation" come with Him to reign!
