[The kingdom He, as Man, receives]
When all things shall be subdued unto
Him, then shall the Son also Himself be subject unto Him
that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.
1 Corinthians xv. 28.
The kingdom He, as Man, receives,
Christ shall deliver up, as Man;
But still as God supreme He lives,
As God He cannot cease to reign,
Cannot be less than the Most High,
As God, no more than He can die.
Christ shall deliver up, as Man;
But still as God supreme He lives,
As God He cannot cease to reign,
Cannot be less than the Most High,
As God, no more than He can die.
His power the interceding Son
To His almighty Sire submits,
And then upon His Father's throne
Jehovah in Jehovah sits,
That the One glorious God in Three
May all in all for ever be.
To His almighty Sire submits,
And then upon His Father's throne
Jehovah in Jehovah sits,
That the One glorious God in Three
May all in all for ever be.
