MANCHILD

               God’s plan in His Son,

A woman clothed with the sun,

The righteousness of God,

She standeth on the moon,

The grace untold,

Jerusalem, the mother of us all.

 

                              CHORUS

 

 Oh, mystery, this great mystery!

Revealed now to His saints,

Who’ve denied all worldly gains,

Oh, mystery! This great mystery!

               The hope of our glory shown.

 

2.              She’s steadfast in the doctrine,

To apostles given,

Firm, holding forth the Word

Of life, in the world,

The glorious Church, the pride of her Lord.

 

3.               All nations he’ll be ruling,

With a mighty rod of iron,

The offspring of the woman,

The sons of God,

The whole creation longeth for.

 

4.             And there appears another wonder,

       In the heav’n above,

       A great red dragon yonder,

       The manchild to devour,

       But the child was caught up to God,

       And the throne of His love,

           To reign with Him for evermore.
