Verse 1
The things and purposes of man
Are seen and understood by none;
None, none without him can explain
His secret thoughts and mind unknown:
The spirit which in the man doth dwell,
Which is the man, alone can tell.

Verse 2
The things invisible, divine,
Search’d out by none but God can be:
Too short or man’s or angel’s line
To sound the depths of deity:
The Spirit which in our God doth dwell,
Which is our God, alone can tell.

Verse 3
None of a different nature can
A far superior nature know:
Incomprehensible to man
Is God, unless himself he show,
Unless his heavenly Spirit impart
His light to man’s infernal heart.

Verse 4
Thou co-essential Spirit, shine,
The things of God in us reveal:
The things of God are only thine,
Jehovah indivisible,
God with the Father and the Son,
In perfect Unity, come down.

Verse 5
Save us for thy own nature’s sake,
And teach by thy anointing grace,
Possession of thy creature take,
We then the mind of Christ possess,
We have the true divinity,
The whole of God reveal’d in thee.
