 1  Dear Lord Jesus, we adore Thee,

       "Seed of woman" Thou became;

    Of the virgin wast begotten,

       Called e'en with a human name.

    Taking thus the human nature,

       Thou as man the serpent trod;

    By the Cross his head Thou bruis褼/p>

       And fulfilled the plan of God.

 

Lord, we see Thy glory,

Shown in human beauty,

Full of splendor, manifested

         In humanity.

 

 2  As a man, by incarnation,

       Flesh and blood didst Thou partake

    To destroy the devil, Satan,

       In our stead and for our sake.

    With the name of Jesus given

       And Emmanuel call韝too,

    Thou becam'st our precious Savior,

       Bringing us salvation true.

 

Lord, we see Thy glory,

Shown in human beauty,

Full of splendor, manifested

         In humanity.

 

 3  Thou, "Last Adam" wast entitled,

       And wast called the "second man",

    Head of all the new creation,

       Better than the first man.

    On this earth in life and conduct

       Thou indeed wast Son of man;

    Now in heaven with this nature

       Thou dost still appear as man.

 

Lord, we see Thy glory,

Shown in human beauty,

Full of splendor, manifested

         In humanity.

 

 4  In the time which God appointed

       Thou wilt come, dear Lord, again,

    With the glory of the Father,

       Still appearing as a man.

    Even on the throne of judgment

       Son of man Thou still wilt be;

    And with this, our human nature,

       Thou forevermore wilt be.

 

Lord, we see Thy glory,

Shown in human beauty,

Full of splendor, manifested

         In humanity.
