His liv­ing pre­sence we have felt,
God in our flesh, Im­ma­nu­el.
Gives Him­self with His own hand.
Those whose wis­dom still di­rects us;
Our prais­es and rev­er­ence are an of­fer­ing meet;
Gave Him­self with His own hand.
Come now to make us one,
The cross be borne for me, for you.

Word made flesh

And hearts of stone be­fore Him melt,
True God, true man is He:
Earthly bread to flesh He turns;
For the Spir­it which pro­tects us.
Shout His al­migh­ty name, ye choirs of an­gels,
Very bread His flesh to be;
Through Your Eter­nal Son!
The Babe, the son of Ma­ry.
