 1 

Christ is the testimony true

Of God in essence and in deed;

God's glory He has fully shown,

And we in Him God's nature read.

 
 2 

His testimony is more full

Than was the witness of the law,

Which only God in letter showed,

And not in endless living pow'r.

 
 3 

The fulness of the Godhead dwells

In Him, His very element;

God's full embodiment is He —

A vessel, God the resident.

 
 4 

The Father God He manifests;

God's glorious features He displays;

In Him consummately are seen

The Father's heart and all His ways.

 
 5 

Christ as the Spirit now has come

That He our portion be fore'er;

In spirit we partake of Him

And all God's being fully share.
