[True, absolute Divinity]
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, and not
after Christ: for in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Colossians ii. 8, 9.
True, absolute Divinity,
Jesus, we dare ascribe to Thee,
Which vain philosophy denies,
And baffles us with glozing lies,
Thy glorious Deity blasphemes
With Arian or Socinian dreams,
To cast the weak believers down,
And rob the children of their crown.

Which vain philosophy denies,
And baffles us with glozing lies,
Thy glorious Deity blasphemes
With Arian or Socinian dreams,
To cast the weak believers down,
And rob the children of their crown.
But grounded on Thy written word,
We worship our almighty Lord:
In Thee, whom Thy own Spirit reveals,
The fulness of the Godhead dwells:
Thy person really Divine,
Thy body is Jehovah's shrine,
The whole substantial Deity
Resides eternally in Thee.
