Tune: Martyrdom
('As pants the hart for cooling streams')
Hebrews 1 v.1-3
*********
God, who at sundry times did say
And in various ways
Spoke to our ancestors of old
By prophets them He told
in these last days now He speaks still
By His Son, that His will
Whom He has appointed the heir
Of all things, just and fair
By whom He also the worlds made
His creation displayed
His Son He is the brightness sure
Of God's glory e'ermore
And He is the express image
Of His person, the bridge
To lead mankind to God, the Way
The Truth, Life for our days
He upholds all things by the word
Of His power, assured
When He had by himself our sins
Forgave, cleansed us within
Then He sat down at God's right hand
He Lord of every land
He with the Majesty on high
Yet to His people nigh

Good one Orchi.
Thanks Gold.
I dare say this is a very decent hymn poem .. although gender neutral is all the rage .. 🙂
Thanks N.
