His Humanity

In the Testament of old
See th' acacia wood with gold;
Such humanity behold!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
praise the Lord!

Jesus is th' acacia wood —
What a man, so fine and good!
All corruption He withstood —
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
praise the Lord!

Jesus, wisdom of God's plan,
Son of God and Son of Man;
A new manhood He began —
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
praise the Lord!

For since by the one came death,
By this man came living breath;
Man the Lord recovereth —
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
praise the Lord!

Types and shadows to us show
Jesus is the man to know.
Now this man in us must grow —
Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord!

Lord, may Thy humanity
Permeate us thoroughly,
Drawing many men to Thee —
Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord!
