John 2:21: He spake of the temple of His body

Jesus' soul and body are
The true temple of the Lord,
Come we, then, and worship there
God in the incarnate Word!
There the pure religion lies,
Dwells the Father in the Son,
And who reigns above the skies
God is found in Christ alone.

Very man of very man,
Temple of the Deity,
Whom the heavens cannot contain.
Bow our inmost souls to Thee.
Exiles while on earth we mourn,
Captives in a world of care,
All our thoughts to Thee we turn,
Every wish, and every prayer.

Prostrate now the shrine before
Join we in Thy Spirit's cry,
Our Inunanuel adore,
Wait Thy coming from the sky:
Come and fix the temple here,
All Thy majesty reveal,
With Thy glorious scars appear,
Heaven and earth with glory fill.
