The image of the Father God, Lord, we behold in Thee; The fulness of the Godhead true In Thee dwells bodily. |

Lord, Thou art God's eternal Word With life divine in Thee; In Thee His grace we all receive With His reality. |

Effulgence of God's glory true, The Son of God art Thou; The very substance of Himself In Thee we all avow. |

Embodiment of God Thou art, And with Him ever one; In Thee is God expressed to us Beyond comparison. |

God we enjoy in Thee, dear Lord, As life and everything; To Thee and God our heartfelt thanks And praise we'll ever bring. |
