The vision that the Lord has giv’n
Verse 1
The vision that the Lord has giv’n To His recovery, Is Christ the all-inclusive One, And all-inheriting; The high peak vision guides our way And gives us heav’nly sight, Preserving us and keeping us In oneness by His light.
Chorus
The vision of the ages, An extr’ordinary scene, This glorious, inward seeing Is for God’s recovery; From Genesis to Revelation open up our eyes To see the purpose, heart, and goal of God’s economy.
Verse 2
The govern’ng vision of the Word Is God Himself in Christ, To work Himself into our being, That He may be our life; Our one accord is carried out With one intent and way; To love the Lord and know His life In all we think and say.
Chorus
The vision of the ages, An extr’ordinary scene, This glorious, inward seeing Is for God’s recovery; From Genesis to Revelation open up our eyes To see the purpose, heart, and goal of God’s economy.
Verse 3
The high peak of the vision is The “diamond in the box;” That God in Christ has made man God, But in the Godhead, not; Christ’s Body is expressed when God And man in oneness meet; The New Jerusalem is built, The vision is complete!
Chorus
The vision of the ages, An extr’ordinary scene, This glorious, inward seeing Is for God’s recovery; From Genesis to Revelation open up our eyes To see the purpose, heart, and goal of God’s economy.
