The holy head of man!

In mercy's glorious plan!

Of Adam's tribes below.
3 In thee, presented pure
Before the throne of God,
All nations there are made anew,
Of one life giving blood.
4 First born of Heav'n, of earth,
Of ev'ry creature, hail!
Born to redeem from death and hell,
Thy purpose cannot fail.

All systems melt away;
The sun himself turn black as night;
And earth be lost to day.

Th' unchanging, Saviour God;
And as eternal ages roll,
Thy name shall be ador'd. Topics: Hymns, on the Life of Immanuel, the Head of every Man

With shouts, their solemn joy;
Or songs of morning stars were heard,
As pure without alloy:
3 Thy early day, proclaim'd thee then,
The first born child of grace:
Great representative of men,
Before the Father's face.
4 The great invisible we see,
In thee, and thee alone:
To men, and angels out of thee,
The Godhead is unknown.

Thou his infinite thought;
Creation, providence, and grace,
In thee, decreed and wrought. Topics: Attributes, Characters, Names, and Offices of Christ, from the New Testatment
