EN 4082 Thou Art the Everlasting Word

John.1.1

Versi Version 1

1

Thou art the everlasting Word,

The Father’s only Son;

God manifestly seen and heard,

And Heav’n’s beloved one:

Worthy, O Lamb of God, art Thou

That every knee to Thee should bow.

2

In Thee most perfectly expressed

The Father’s glories shine;

Of the full deity possessed,

Eternally divine:

3

True image of the Infinite,

Whose essence is concealed;

Brightness of uncreated light;

The heart of God revealed:

4

But the high mysteries of Thy Name

An angel’s grasp transcend;

The Father only—glorious claim!—

The Son can comprehend:

5

Throughout the universe of bliss,

The center Thou, and sun;

Th’eternal theme of praise of this,

To Heav’n’s beloved one:
