Verse 1
Sent from the heavenly Father down,
Thou cam’st to make the Godhead known,
The mysteries divine t’ impart,
And speak his words into my heart:
That Spirit I in measure feel
Who doth the things of God reveal,
Fathoms the depths of Deity,
And dwells with all his grace in Thee.
Verse 2
The words Thou dost from God declare
Pure life, and quickning spirit are,
Their own divinity they prove,
Th’ eternal Truth, and Power, and Love:
Our penetrated hearts agree
Never was man that spake like Thee,
God over all the Speaker own,
And seat thee on thy fav’rite throne.
