He Knew No Darkness
He knew no darkness for eternity before
No separation from the Father and the Spirit in unbreakable accord
But freely out of love for the children of the fall
Such an agony and horror through the holy wrath of God on the sin of man outpoured
In his sinless undeserving perfect manhood without murmuring he bore.
Now full of splendour eternally he reigns as Lord
In exultation with the Father and the Spirit incessantly adored
The mystery of grace shall ever be explored
The wisdom and the mercy and the boundless love of God in the spotless Lamb
declared
shall be wondered at unceasing by the angels and by new creation evermore.
