| Hymn A & M 537- TO you was given, O saint beloved |
1. TO you was given, O saint beloved,
A vision of Christ's glory
Before he lived his earthly life
Begun with Christmas story;
The story of the Son of God
Before the world's creation,
in whom all things that are were
made
And have their consummation.
2. In you he found his closest friend,
A friend though frail and mortal,
Whose love so pure gave sight so
sure
it pierced beyond heavens portal:
So to the world you witness gave,
With prophet‘s, eye descrying
The life of grace and fellowship,
The life in God undying.
3. O love of God that overflowed
in glories of creation!
O crowning glory of all life
in wondrous incarnation!
All praise to God whose saint and
Declared the love excelling [seer
Now shed abroad in faithful hearts
Abounding and indwelling.
