<p>Let earth and heaven combine,<br>
|
|
Angels and men agree,<br>
|
|
To praise in songs divine<br>
|
|
The incarnate Deity,<br>
|
|
Our God contracted to a span,<br>
|
|
Incomprehensibly made Man.</p>
|
|
<p>He laid His glory by,<br>
|
|
He wrapped Him in our clay;<br>
|
|
Unmarked by human eye,<br>
|
|
The latent Godhead lay;<br>
|
|
Infant of days He here became,<br>
|
|
And bore the mild Immanuel’s Name.</p>
|
|
<p>Unsearchable the love<br>
|
|
That has the Savior brought;<br>
|
|
The grace is far above<br>
|
|
Of men or angels’ thought:<br>
|
|
Suffice for us that God, we know,<br>
|
|
Our God, is manifest below.</p>
|
|
<p>He deigns in flesh to appear,<br>
|
|
Widest extremes to join;<br>
|
|
To bring our vileness near,<br>
|
|
And make us all divine:<br>
|
|
And we the life of God shall know,<br>
|
|
For God is manifest below.</p>
|
|
<p>Made perfect first in love,<br>
|
|
And sanctified by grace,<br>
|
|
We shall from earth remove,<br>
|
|
And see His glorious face:<br>
|
|
His love shall then be fully showed,<br>
|
|
And man shall all be lost in God.</p>
