Creation and the Incarnation.
OR THE SUCCESSIVE DEGREES OFTHE DIVINE
CONDESCENSION
When whs it that in act began
That Condescension from on high
Consummated in God made man
Its shrine for all eternity?
'Twas when the Eternal Father spake
The Eternal Son His voice obeyed;
When sudden forth from darkness brake
That universe the Word had made.
Instant that All-Creative Power
A meek sustaining Power became
A Ministration hour by hour . 4
From death preserving Nature's frame.
Instant unto Creation's breast
Nor merged nor mixed He passed and gave
Continuance to the quivering guest
That else had found at birth its grave.
In finite mansions He the Immense
Servant yet reigning made abode
Bore up a Law a Providence
The weight of worlds "His people's load."
He came once more not then to reign:
In servant's form to serve and die
The "Lamb before the ages slain"
"The Woman's Seed" of prophecy. f
