He Comes To Us As One Unknown

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Hymnal Supplement 1991 #801 (1991) Topics: Death; Faith; Jesus Christ; Justification; Suffering; Teachers and Teaching; Word of God Lyrics: 1 He comes to us as one unknown, A breath unseen, unheard; As though within a heart of stone, Or shriveled seed in darkness sown, A pulse of being stirred, A pulse of being stirred. 2 He comes when souls in silence lie And thoughts of day depart; Half-seen upon the inward eye, A falling star across the sky Of night within the heart, Of night within the heart. 3 He comes to us in sound of seas, The ocean's fume and foam; Yet small and still upon the breeze, A wind that stirs the tops of trees, A voice to call us home, A voice to call us home. 4 He comes in love as once he came By flesh and blood and birth; To bear within our mortal frame A life, a death, a saving Name, For ev'ry child of earth, For ev'ry child of earth. 5 He comes in truth when faith is grown; Believed, obeyed, adored: The Christ in all the scriptures shown, As yet unseen, but not unknown, Our Savior and our Lord, Our Savior and our Lord. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 14:15 Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON
