EN 4100 The Son Forsook the Father’s Home

John.1.14

Versi Version 1

1

The Son forsook the Father’s home

For mercy to lost man,

And did not scorn the virgin’s womb

To bear the sinner’s ban.

2

Meekly the maiden pure believed

The great archangel’s word,

And by the Holy Ghost conceived

The Savior Christ the Lord.

3

The Word made flesh creation sees,

Its mighty God in Man:

Great mystery of mysteries

Since ever time began!

4

That we might gain a second birth

The Holy Son was giv’n:

’Twas God Himself came down to earth

To win us back to Heav’n.

5

Lord! we believe with love and praise

This wondrous truth of Thee:

Thereby in all our troublous days

How strong henceforth are we!

6

So near art Thou, so strong are we,

For now, if we are Thine,

Our Brother in humanity,

Thou makest us divine!

7

We see with peace in times of fear

Serene Thy human form

Thy human voice with joy we hear,

Sweet-toned above the storm.

8

So dread we not the deathly strife,

Knowing that Thou hast died:

It can but bear us into life,

Since nearer to Thy side!
