Behold, as Jesus did, immortal man!
The vision infinite the Christ revealed:
In glory formed—before the world began—
The perfect man the love of God has sealed.
Existing in the All and only, he
Embraces peace and dwells in heavenly good,
Forever sure of Love's infinity
And God's eternal, changeless fatherhood.
As indestructible as Truth he stands,
Inviolate in Principle and Mind;
While all the universe unfolds, expands,
Deep answers deep in common voice and kind.
Above all fear of earthly rule and rod,
Man lives in splendor as the son of God.
