Christ is the testimony true

Christ is the testimony true Of God in essence and in deed; God's glory He has fully shown, And we in Him God's nature read.

His testimony is more full Than was the witness of the law, Which only God in letter showed, And not in endless living pow'r.

The fulness of the Godhead dwells In Him, His very element; God's full embodiment is He- A vessel, God the resident.

The Father God He manifests; God's glorious features He displays; In Him consummately are seen The Father's heart and all His ways.

Christ as the Spirit now has come That He our portion be fore'er; In spirit we partake of Him And all God's being fully share.
