John 17:26: Christ our Head and Heavenly Lord

Christ our Head and Heavenly Lord,
Thou only canst proclaim
By Thine own inspoken word
Thy heavenly Father's name:
Thou to us hast made it known,
His Power and Wisdom from above,
Then His Righteousness we own,
His Truth, and Life, and Love.

Thou His name unspeakable
Wilt farther yet declare,
Till we all His nature feel,
And all His impress bear,
Till, complete in holiness
We comprehend the mystery,
Fill'd with all His love and grace,
For ever fill'd with Thee.

Come Thou holy One of God,
And by that Spirit Divine
Shed in all our hearts abroad
Thy Father's love and Thine:
Fit us for the blissful sight,
And when Thou hast Thy saints prepared,
(ilory on our foreheads write.
Thyself our full Reward.

Fulness of power the world to save
Thy Father hath conferr'd on Thee,
All flesh He to Thy merit gave,
And Thou hast proved Thy power on me;
Thou hast to me the Father show'd,
Thine everlasting Spirit given:
And lo, I live the life of God,

I live on earth the life of heaven!
Redeem'd by Thine electing love,
And separate from the world I am,
Endow'd with wisdom from above
I know the great Jehovah's name;
Thou hast the Deity declared,
His nature to my soul reveal'd;

And soon in me, Thy death's reward,
Thy sayings shall be all fulfill'd.
Good in myself whereon to ground
My hopes of bliss, I seek no more,
Cause of all good in creatures found
Thy grace, O Father, I adore:
Instructed by Thy humble Son,

(Thy Son from all eternity)
The Fountain of perfection own
The whole of excellence in Thee.
Jesus, in whom I now believe,
The Author of my faith Thou art,
The words Thou didst from God receive
Thy Spirit hath spoke them to my heart:
