327. Lord Jesus! Are We One With Thee

C.M.
by J.G. Deck
1
Lord Jesus! are we one with Thee?
 
Oh height! Oh depth of love!
 
And crucified and dead with Thee,
 
Now one in heaven above.
“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.” (1 Corinthians 12:12)
“For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.” (Ephesians 5:31-32)
“May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height.” (Ephesians 3:18)
“Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.” (Romans 6:6-8)
2
Such was Thy grace, that for our sake
 
Thou didst from heaven come down;
 
With us of flesh and blood partake,
 
And make our guilt Thine own.
“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” (2 Corinthians 8:9)
3
Our sins, our guilt, in love divine,
 
Confessed and borne by Thee;
 
The gall, the curse, the wrath were Thine,
 
To set Thy ransomed free.
4
Ascended now, in glory bright,
 
Life-giving Head Thou art;
 
Nor life, nor death, nor depth, nor height,
 
Thy saints and Thee can part.
5
And soon shall come that glorious day,
 
When, seated on Thy throne,
 
Thou shalt to wondering worlds display
 
That we with Thee are one.
