From the heavens came, You stepped out of eternity, Died and rose as a man That You could impart Your life to me. Fallen, in her condition Israel left her Love. She was stubborn in her position— To God she would not come. Under the Lord's chastising She was an unturned cake. But Jehovah, with love unchanging Makes Israel His own son—a change to make. You became a man— Cord of love to me. I am drawn with loving bands And embraced by Thee.
