'Tis the Lord of all creation, who this wondrous path hath trod; he is God from everlasting, and to everlasting God. 2 Who is this - a Man of Sorrows, walking sadly life's hard way; homeless, weary, sighing, weeping over sin and Satan's sway? 'Tis our God, our glorious Saviour, who beyond our mortal sight now for us a place prepareth free from grief and full of light. 3 Who is this - behold him raining drops of blood upon the ground? Who is this - despised, rejected, mocked, insulted, beaten, bound? 'Tis our God, who gifts and graces on his Church now poureth down; all his faithful ones empowering to partake in cross and crown. 4 Who is this that hangeth dying, while the thieves on either side? Nails his hands and feet are tearing, and the spear hath pierced his side. 'Tis the God who ever liveth 'mid the shining ones on high, in the glorious golden city, reigning everlastingly.
