H14.II. The eternal Son of God took upon him the very Nature of Man

4 God with us! O glorious name!
Let it shine in endless fame:
God and man in Christ unite,
O mysterious depth and height!

5 God with us! th' eternal Son
Took our soul, our flesh and bone.
Now, ye saints, his grace admire,
Swell the song with holy fire.

6 God with us! but tainted not
With the first transgressors' blot;
Yet did he our sins sustain,
Bear the guilt, the curse, the pain.

7 God with us! O wond'rous grace!
Let us see him face to face,
That we may Immanuel sing,
As we ought, our God and King.
