Oh, Christ in all His glory put on humanity (Alternate Tune)

lyricist: Adapted
Composer: Alfred Henry Ackley

Oh

Christ in all His glory put on humanity

So He could be my Person

and live instead of me.

A man in life and being

He fully fits my case

So all His glorious Person can me replace.

O Lord

O Lord

You are the man for me!

I take You as my Person

as my full identity.

O Lord

O Lord

subdue my every part

And every moment

every place

make home in all my heart.

Oh

Christ became the Spirit to speak inside of me

And as the speaking Spirit He speaks unceasingly.

His speaking is the water that washes me within

Discharging all my oldness

imparting Him.

O Lord

O Lord

speak all You want to me.

Your speaking is Your presence—I must have it constantly.

O Lord

O Lord

speak-wash my every part

And by this metabolic change

make home in all my heart.

Oh

Christ will come

the Bridegroom

for us

His glorious Bride

By coming from within us the church is glorified.

His Person is the glory expanding now in us;

This glory is our Person—how glorious!

O Lord

O Lord

by Your economy

So flood us with Your glory

saturate us thoroughly.

Come out

come out

break forth in glory here

And from the church

O glorious One

in glory soon appear.
