In the Testament of old

In the Testament of old See th' acacia wood with gold; Such humanity behold! Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!

Jesus is th' acacia wood — What a man, so fine and good! All corruption, He withstood — Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!

Jesus, wisdom of God's plan, Son of God and Son of Man; A new manhood He began — Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!

For since by the one came death, By this man came living breath; Man the Lord recovereth — Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!

Types and shadows to us show Jesus is the man to know. Now this man in us must grow — Amen Lord! Amen Lord! Amen, Lord!

Lord, may Thy humanity Permeate us thoroughly, Drawing many men to Thee — Amen Lord! Amen Lord! Amen, Lord!
