 1 

Objective and subjective Christ is to us,

In heaven He's pleading objectively thus;

Subjectively now in His members He lives

And inwardly to them His being He gives.

 
 2 

In heaven He sits at the right hand of God,

Where as the High Priest He presented His blood;

Our Advocate, bearing our burdens above,

Our Surety, He careth for us in His love.

 
 3 

He now is the Spirit, our spirit within;

He's there as our life, all things bringing with Him;

He's there as our strength and our grace every hour,

Our Paraclete in us, sustaining with pow'r.

 
 4 

In heaven for us He's the glorified man,

The Forerunner entered, fulfilling God's plan;

Man into God bringing and making him one

With God in the heav'nlies, in Him as the Son.

 
 5 

In us all the fulness of God dwells in Him;

As Spirit He brings God Himself thus within,

Revealing and making God real unto us,

God one with us building in life glorious.

 
 6 

The Savior ascended in heaven now dwells,

And soon He's returning for us His Word tells;

Deliverer indwelling, He now in us lives,

And soon will transfigure, His glory to give.

 
 7 

The day soon is coming when heaven and earth

Will mingle in one in that city of worth;

Objective and subjective will in that day

Be mingled within us in glory for aye.
