God Manifest in Flesh
James Relly • English
Primary Scripture: Job 19:26-27
Verse 1
See, O my soul, with wonder see, Array'd in flesh, thy God, Cloth'd with my whole humanity, And deeply drench'd in blood!
Verse 2
My flesh, my blood, and bone espous'd; (O the amazing plan!) From nature's death and darkness rous'd, When God became a man.
Verse 3
My frame, once pure, was marr'd and hamr'd, Between his hands quite spoil'd; But now a nobler vessel form'd, When God became a child.
Verse 4
At Bethl'em was my purer birth, The virgin mother mine, His heav'n married to my earth, In Christ, the man divine.
