976－O Lord Jesus, Thy redeemed ones

ULTIMATE MANIFESTATION － The Holy City

976

	1.	O Lord Jesus, Thy redeemed ones
		Are Thy Body and Thy Bride;
		As Thy fulness, Thine expression,
		In her Thou art glorified.
		Thou, her all in all forever,
		She Thy riches doth declare;
		Thou dost fully saturate her
		And Thy glory with her share.
		Lo, the holy city,
		Full of God's bright glory!
		It is God's complete expression
		In humanity.
	2.	God with man completely blended,
		Mystery of godliness,
		God in glory, full, resplendent,
		Man, His dwelling, doth express.
		'Tis a vessel universal
		All God's fulness to express.
		All His beauty manifesting,
		Mingled with His holiness.
	3.	'Tis a living composition
		Of the saints He hath transformed;
		As the pearls and stones most precious,
		To His image they're conformed:
		>From the throne of God, its center,
		Flows the living water free;
		Christ the tree of life doth flourish,
		Bearing fruit abundantly.
	4.	'Tis th' eternal golden lampstand,
		Holding Christ, the lamp of light;
		God in Christ the light of glory
		As the Spirit shineth bright!
		'Tis the ultimate expression-
		Man in God and God in man;
		'Tis their mutual habitation,
		Goal of God's eternal plan.
