 1  Objective and subjective Christ is to us,

    In heaven He's pleading objectively thus;

    Subjectively now in His members He lives

    And inwardly to them His being He gives.

 

 2  In heaven He sits at the right hand of God,

    Where as the High Priest He presented His blood;

    Our Advocate, bearing our burdens above,

    Our Surety, He careth for us in His love.

 

 3  He now is the Spirit, our spirit within;

    He's there as our life, all things bringing with Him;

    He's there as our strength and our grace every hour,

    Our Paraclete in us, sustaining with pow'r.

 

 4  In heaven for us He's the glorified man,

    The Forerunner entered, fulfilling God's plan;

    Man into God bringing and making him one

    With God in the heav'nlies, in Him as the Son.

 

 5  In us all the fulness of God dwells in Him;

    As Spirit He brings God Himself thus within,

    Revealing and making God real unto us,

    God one with us building in life glorious.

 

 6  The Savior ascended in heaven now dwells,

    And soon He's returning for us His Word tells;

    Deliverer indwelling, He now in us lives,

    And soon will transfigure, His glory to give.

 

 7  The day soon is coming when heaven and earth

    Will mingle in one in that city of worth;

    Objective and subjective will in that day

    Be mingled within us in glory for aye.
