|  | 1. | God was born a human being | 
|  |  | As the Babe of Bethlehem, | 
|  |  | Passed He then through human living, | 
|  |  | Perfect blend of God with men. | 
|  |  | God, according to His plan, | 
|  |  | Lived a mingled life with man. | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Amen! | 
|  | 2. | Then with God this man was blended | 
|  |  | On the altar as He died; | 
|  |  | God and man and all creation | 
|  |  | On the cross were crucified. | 
|  |  | Man and all of God's creation, | 
|  |  | Sunk in total termination. | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Amen! | 
|  | 3. | Everything we are was ended, | 
|  |  | Terminated on the cross, | 
|  |  | Only man in God ascended, | 
|  |  | Man in Adam suffered loss. | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, we're elated, | 
|  |  | Our old man was terminated. | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Amen! | 
|  | 4. | Like the grain of wheat that's buried | 
|  |  | In the earth to be increased, | 
|  |  | God's own life the death must suffer, | 
|  |  | Thus in man to be released. | 
|  |  | Oh, the Lord of all be praised; | 
|  |  | God released in man is raised! | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Amen! |
