O WHAT A MYSTERY I SEE
|
What marvellous design
|
That God should come as one of us
|
A Son in David's line
|
Flesh of our flesh, of woman born
|
Our humanness he owns
|
And for a world of wickedness
|
His guiltless blood atones
|
|
This perfect Man, incarnate God
|
By selfless sacrifice
|
Destroyed our sinful history
|
All fallen Adam's curse
|
In him the curse of blessing turns
|
My barren spirit flowers
|
As over the shattered power of sin
|
The cross of Jesus towers
|
|
(A) By faith a child of his I sand
|
An heir in David's line
|
Royal descendant by his blood
|
Destined by Love's design
|
(B) Fathers of faith, my fathers now!
|
Because in Christ I am
|
All And all God's promises in Him
|
To me are 'Yes, Amen'!
|
|
No more then as a child of earth
|
Must I my lifetime spend - his history
|
His destiny are mine to apprehend
|
Oh what a Saviour, what a Lord
|
O Master, Brother, Friend!
|
What a miracle has joined me to
|
This life that never ends!
