Incarnate God, Immortal Love

Author: Alfred Tennyson Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #414 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Year B Advent 2 Lyrics: 1 Incarnate God, immortal Love, whom we, that have not seen your face, by faith, and faith alone, embrace, Believing where we cannot prove; 2 You will not leave us in the dust; you gave us life, we know not why. We trust we were not made to die, for you have made us, you are just. 3 In you meet human and divine, the highest, holiest union known. We falsely call our powers our own until our wills with yours combine. 4 Our little systems have their day; they have their day and cease to be; They are but fleeting certainty, and you, O Christ, are more than they. 5 We have but faith; we cannot know, for knowledge is of things proved true; And yet we trust it comes from you, a sign of promise; let it grow. 6 Let knowledge grow from more to more, but more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, may make one music as before.
