Looking to Jesus
Looking closely at Jesus we can then see
the full Glory of God dwelling bodily.
Born of the Spirit by a virgin birth,
God the Almighty walking on Earth.
By listening to Jesus we can hear
the secrets of the heavens made so clear.
For the fullness of the great Godhead dwelt
here on the Earth wherever Jesus knelt.
When looking to Jesus we all can know
the greatness of God here on Earth below.
For the Word of the Lord had been made flesh
and walked beside us in righteousness.
There shining from Jesus we see the Light.
God's Shekinah glory burning so bright.
Mercy and Justice kissed at His sacrifice
and Grace and Truth came together in Christ.
