When all was sin and shame, a second Adam to the fight and to the rescue came. 3 O wisest love! that flesh and blood, which did in Adam fail, should strive afresh against the foe, should strive and should prevail; 4 And that a higher gift than grace should flesh and blood refine, God's presence and his very self, and essence all-divine. 5 O generous love! that he, who smote in Man for man the foe, the double agony in Man for man should undergo; 6 And in the garden secretly, and on the cross on high, should teach his brethren, and inspire to suffer and to die. 7 Praise to the Holiest in the height, and in the depth be praise: in all his words most wonderful, most sure in all his ways.
