[All things unto Christ, as man]
But when He saith all things are put
under Him, it is manifest that He is excepted which did put
all things under Him. And when all things shall be subdued unto Him.
1 Corinthians xv. 27.
We look for the Saviour the Lord
Jesus Christ—who is able even to subdue all things to Himself.
Philippians iii. 20, 21.
All things unto Christ, as man,
By Another are subdued;
But we steadfastly maintain
He that Other is, as God:
He can, as Jehovah's Son,
All things to Himself subdue:
Jesus sitting on His throne
Makes our universe anew.
By Another are subdued;
But we steadfastly maintain
He that Other is, as God:

All things to Himself subdue:
Jesus sitting on His throne
Makes our universe anew.
Jesus, Son of the Most High,
Power omnipotent is Thine;
Lord of all in earth and sky,
Vindicate Thy right Divine;
Conquer this rebellious heart:
Then I know, in love renew'd,
Thou, my present Saviour, art
The One, true, eternal God.
