God the Lord has spoken,
God has been unveiled;
All His character
and persons are expressed;
Unto Adam’s sons
His mystery is revealed,
Fully illustrated
and made manifest.
God the Lord has spoken,
and His heart disclosed,
That His Son should have
pre-eminence in all,
That in His dear Son
He might be glorified
Midst all His creation,
either great or small.
God the Lord has spoken,
Christ has been revealed:
He is very God
and yet is truly man;
He is all in all,
in Him all things subsist,
Center and circumference
of th’ eternal plan.
God the Lord has spoken,
and His mystery shown,
Christ and His expression
has His counsel willed:
Christ with all God’s fulness
as the glorious Head,
And the Church His Body,
with His riches filled.
God the Lord has spoken,
and from heaven shown
That the triune God
would blend with creature-man:
Father in the Son,
the Son the Spirit is,
Dwelling in the Body
to fulfill His plan.
God the Lord has spoken,
revelation giv’n
Of His vast creation
and His lowly birth,
Of His great redemption
and salvation full;
May His adoration
ever fill the earth.
