3 Such whom the Father never saw, To them thou dost him show; All his perfections are in thee, What further would we know?
4 Thou dost, Lord, represent to us God, whom we cannot see; He dwells in light inaccessible, Which can't approached be.
5 Thou brings him to our minds and sight, Whereby we may conceive Of his eternal glory bright, And clearer knowledge have
6 Of him, and also him adore In thee, and by thee too; But after all we must confess We little see or know.
7 All praise and glory unto God, And Christ, in whom doth shine All glories which the Father hath, Most sacred and divine.
