Riches of Christ we should enjoy
And then His fulness we will be;
Partaking of His very self
His testimony men will see.
Riches of Christ are what He is
To us who are His members true;
His fulness is what we become
As body doth to man accrue.
Riches of Christ are typified
By Canaan’s produce rich and sweet
With which the temple great was built
The Church’s greatest type replete.
As Eve to Adam fulness was
So is the Church to Christ her Head;
As Eve from Adam’s being came
The Church by Christ’s own life is bred.
Christ’s riches are Himself within
His fulness is the Church without
As His expression
full of Him;
The Church with Christ is built throughout.
