Author: Somerset Corry Lowry, 1855-1932 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Consummation in Christ Lyrics: 1 A man there lived in Galilee like no one else before, for he alone from first to last our flesh unsullied wore; a perfect life of perfect deeds once to the world was shown, that everyone might mark his steps and in them place their own. 2 A man there died on Calvary above all others brave; he gave to all, he saved and blessed, himself he scorned to save; no thought can gauge the weight of woe on him, the sinless, laid; we only know that with his death our ransom price was paid. 3 A man there stands at God's right hand, divine, yet human still; that grand, heroic, peerless soul death sought in vain to kill. All power is his: supreme he rules all realms of time and space; yet still our human cares and needs find in his heart a place. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:21 Used With Tune: TYROLESE
