CCXLIII. Son of Man

1 Awake my soul, arise,
Review salvation's plan:
Behold all nature's sov'reign Lord
The Son, the Son of Man.

2 What need of further proof,
That God is love supreme?
Here goodness, mercy, justice, grace,
In full redemption beam.

3 Will Jesus e'er deny,
This title which he wears?
Sure no—for mid his glorious throne,
The name of Man he bears.

4 Then trust my soul, thy All,
To God, to Man, in one:
And humbly wait the coming day,
Which crowns the perfect Son.
