Lo, the conflict of the ages Is upon us today, And the forces of rebellion Are in total array. The humanity of Jesus Now the saints must possess, His true image and dominion On the earth to express. |
| Let us stand up in Jesus In His full human life, Human virtues prevailing ’Gainst corruption so rife; In this wickedness concerted, In this age perverse, perverted, The humanity of Jesus Must the church now display. |

Lo, how Satan came to damage Human life on the earth; But the Lord in all this ruin Raised a man full of worth! From the seed of the woman God incarnate became The man Jesus—the last Adam— To destroy Satan’s aim! |

It’s by calling, drinking, eating The man Jesus today, His humanity enjoying Bruises Satan each day. To the Lord we must be turning, All our soul life deny, To destroy all Satan’s working And the new man supply. |

See the ruin of a nation Going downward in sin; All humanity is fallen And corrupted within. But as children of the kingdom We are salting the earth; His humanity preserves us In the midst of such dearth. |

To the Lord we must be turning,
All our soul life deny,
Rev 12:11: They Overcame by the Blood of the Lamb, the Word if their Testimony and they loved not their soul-life unto death!
The Humanity of Jesus, must the Church now display!

What a song! Wow! What a feeling! The song makes me ponder about my life with Christ Jesus. Dedication to Christ is for our spiritual nourishment.

His humanity enjoying bruises Satan each day!
Let us stand up in Jesus in His full human life... Lord, make this our reality... the reality of the full grown man! His true image and dominion on the earth to express.

I love this hymn because it is my experience, and no one can argue with that. He is coming, He is coming!
