What a victory! What a triumph

What a victory! What a triumph!

God Himself became a man

Clothed Himself in human nature

To fulfill His mighty plan.

He through death destroyed the devil;

Risen now

the Son of Man!

Jesus by His human virtues

Did the subtle one arrest;

He as man withstood the tempter

Fully passed through every test.

Now in spirit I can take Him

All His virtues to possess.

In the Spirit of this Jesus

Is His human life so fine.

Human virtues have been added

To the Spirit all divine.

What abundance in this Spirit

Rich supply for all mankind!

How mysterious! Yet how real!

Such a man now lives in me.

Into all my heart He’s spreading—

He

my human life

to be.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

I will praise unceasingly.

Oh

what wonder! Oh

how glorious!

God in flesh is manifest.

We the members of His Body

His humanity express.

For the building of God’s dwelling

We His human life possess.
