Christ is God’s centrality
And His universality;
He is God’s delight and joy
Throughout all eternity.
He’s th’ embodiment of God,
In Him all God’s fulness dwells;
His unique supremacy
And His Godhead none excels.
All God’s purpose is for Him,
That He might be all in all;
All the things in heav’n and earth
With Himself are made withal.
All creation is for Christ,
Everything was made by Him;
’Tis by Him all things subsist,
He’s the hub and He’s the rim.
In redemption He is all,
All through Him is reconciled;
By His blood all things with God
Now in peace are domiciled.
He the great beginning is,
And the Church’s living Head;
He her life and content too,
And the firstborn from the dead.
In God’s Kingdom He’s the King,
All the pow’r to Him is giv’n;
In His glory He shall rule
Over all in earth and heav’n
In new heaven and new earth
Center of all things He’ll be,
For the Godhead and for man
Throughout all eternity.
God intends in everything
Christ should have preeminence,
And that such a Christ of all
We should now experience.
