Shechinah

Great Maker of the worlds! yet made
Flesh by Thine own obedient will,
Whose manhood doth Thy Godhead
shade,

Whose Godhead doth Thy manhood fill!
Shechinah! Israel's guide confest!
Before Christ's golden ages ran,
Cloud of the Presence! come to rest

Upon Thy tabernacle man!
Sun of the boundless worlds of light!
Gone forth to rule us from afar
Before Time was, through parting night

Seen as the Bright and Morning Star;
Now fix'd the centre of all love
By truth's immutable decree,
Both hearts and worlds round Thee revolve,

The endless years begin with Thee!
