A child of man, a child of God

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Sin, its universality Lyrics: A child of man, a child of God, How wide their states must be! Beneath His sceptre or His rod, His wrath or clemency. 32 Children of Adam, Adam's fall From primal innocence, Brought guilt and judgment on us all, Entail'd through one offence. Train'd in His image from our birth, We sinn'd, ourselves, and fell, Like him, from heirs of heaven on earth, To heirs of death and hell. Transgressors while we thus remain, In our own blood we lie; We must be born, be born again, Or die, for ever die. A child of man, a child of God, How can such union be? A worm created from a clod, Allied to Deity! Lo! love divine, for man undone, Devised the wondrous plan, The Son of God, God's only Son, Became the Son of man. Our path of life and death He trod, That we like Him might be, Though sons of men, the sons of God, Through His humanity. All glory to the Father's love, Who spared not His Son, Aud sent His Spirit from above, To seal what Christ had done.

Produced by thy creating word, The world from nothing came. 2 Thy voice sent forth the high command, 'Twas instantly obeyed; And through thy goodness all things stand, Which by thy power were made. 3 Lord! for thy glory shine the whole; They all reflect thy light: For this in course the planets roll, And day succeeds the night. 4 For this the sun disperses heat, And beams of cheering day; And distant stars, in order set, By night thy power display. 5 For this the earth its produce yields, For this the waters flow; And blooming plants adorn the fields, And trees aspiring grow. 6 Inspired with praise, our minds pursue This wise and noble end-- That all we think, and all we do, Shall to thine honor tend. Scripture: Psalm 65:9
