HYMN 135. (L. M.) Types and Prophecies of Christ.
I
Behold the woman's promis'd seed!Behold the great Messiah come!
Behold the prophets all agreed
To give him the superior room!
II
Abrah'm the saint rejoic'd of oldWhen visions of the Lord he saw;
Moses the man of God foretold
This great fulfiller of his law.
III
The types bore witness to his name,Obtain'd their chief design, and ceas'd;
The incense and the bleeding lamb,
The ark, the altar, and the priest.
IV
Predictions in abundance meetTo join their blessings on his head;
Jesus, we worship at thy feet,
And nations own the promis'd seed.
