Who can compass or contain

Verse 1
Who can compass or contain
The glorious Infinite?
Ask that heaven-descended Man
In whom He takes delight:
Only one immortal Shrine
Jehovah Self is pleas’d to own,
Worthy of the Sire Divine—
The Body of his Son!

Verse 2
One the Body Mystical
Is with its heavenly Head,
Therefore God vouchsafes to dwell
In all the faithful seed,
In the heart of man t’ abide
When throughly cleans’d by Jesus blood,
By the Spirit sanctified,
And all resign’d to God.
