“AS HE IS.”

God in man, and man in God!

Speed the glorious word abroad;

Heart’s best hope, and Heaven’s plan—

Man in God, and God in man!

Into human history

Blooms the blessed mystery;—

Dayspring darkest night doth span:—

Lo, the Christ! the Son of Man!

Brother, thine the call divine;

Thine the grace, the glory thine;

Life’s ideal in Jesus see:—

As He is, so we may be.

O, how high, how deep, how broad—

Infinite the love of God!

Heaven shall crown the wondrous plan,—

Man in God, and God in man!
