Hymn Context Compare
Bearing all our sins away!
Become the dust thou wert be­fore.
On life to feed. Then God we will receive.
We draw authority from Him
To Him I long to cling.
It is His wings that heal our pains
Of grace and mer­cy through His Son.
Reconciling us to God,
How has that long promised “Seed of the woman”
Never let the lies deceive you;
Rise, the woman’s conqu’ring seed,
Taking thus the human nature,
Its issue, my friend: you’ll surely die.
Till the last glorious morn.
Christ for me! Christ for me!
The victory is won!
For our regeneration.

Serpent

Son of Man, uplifted high.
The wo­man’s seed shall bruise thy head,
In the garden, there in Eden, tree of life he forsook.
No matter what, thou mountain high,
Of vict’ry now I sing.
Close to His bosom we must press
Almighty ven­geance thou shalt feel;
He breaks down the middle wall
How didst Thou humble Thyself to be taken.
Claim the fact that we have seen him
Adam’s likeness now efface,
By the Cross his head Thou bruisèd
Injected in man his death and sin.
The powers of hell grow bold,
He hath redeemed me “by His blood,”
Satan and his fallen angels’ long deceiving days are past!
Who saveth us from evil;

Lamb of God so pure and spotless
