 1 

Thou art the everlasting Word,

   The Father's only Son,

God manifestly seen and heard,

   And heav'n's beloved One:

Divine, O Son of God, art Thou,

In Thee God's fulness find we now.

 

 2 

In Thee most perfectly expressed

   The Father's glories shine;

Of the full Deity possessed,

   Eternally divine:

Divine, O Son of God, art Thou,

In Thee God's fulness find we now.

 

 3 

True image of the Infinite,

   Whose essence is concealed;

Brightness of uncreated light;

   The heart of God revealed:

Divine, O Son of God, art Thou,

In Thee God's fulness find we now.

 

 4 

But the, high mysteries of Thy Name

   An angel's grasp transcend;

The Father only, glorious claim!

   The Son can comprehend:

Divine, O Son of God, art Thou,

In Thee God's fulness find we now.

 

 5 

Throughout the universe of bliss,

   The center, Thou, and sun;

Th' eternal theme of praise is this,

   To heav'n's beloved One:

Divine, O Son of God, art Thou,

In Thee God's fulness find we now.
