God ordained us unto sonship,
Ere creation’s work was done,
To conform us by His Spirit
To the image of His Son;
That His only dear Begotten
Might become the firstborn One,
And by Him with many brethren
His expression full be won.

By divine regeneration
We the sons of God became,
But we must mature to fullness,
Thus the birthright to obtain.
Born and fully grown to manhood,
God’s full sonship we may share;
By the measure of full stature,
We God’s sonship will declare.
