John in. 29. He that hath the brid BRIDEGROOM.

Bridegroom of His church, and Head.
And Husband is the Lord,
By the universe He made
Acknowledged and adored,
The One God For ever bless'd,
Supreme, omnipotent I am,
God made flesh, and manifest
On earth in Jesus' name.

Different from the Father then
Is Christ another God?
No: Jehovah dwelt with men,
And bought us by His blood:
Christ the true Jehovah was,
And is, and shall be evermore:
God expiring on a cross
Let earth and heaven adore.
