In the Testament of old
在舊約聖經裡面，
See th’ acacia wood with gold;
有包金的皂莢木；
Such humanity behold!
何等人性的表顯！
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
讚美主，讚美主，讚美主！

Jesus is th’acacia wood—
耶穌是那皂莢木－
What a man, so fine and good!
柔細、善良的人物；
All corruption He withstood—
不能被敗壞玷污－
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
讚美主，讚美主，讚美主！

Jesus, wisdom of God’s plan,
是神子、又是人子，
Son of God and Son of Man;
神的智慧，是耶穌，
A new manhood He began—
新人類從祂開始－
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
讚美主，讚美主，讚美主！

For since by the one came death,
死原從一人而來，
By this man came living breath;
神就藉一人恢復；
Man the Lord recovereth—
生命之氣已進來－
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
讚美主，讚美主，讚美主！

Types and shadows to us show
將豫表、影兒考查，
Jesus is the man to know.
知這人就是耶穌。
Now this man in us must grow—
須讓祂在裡長大－
Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord!
阿們，主！阿們，主！阿們，主！

Lord, may Thy humanity
但願你的人性，主，
Permeate us thoroughly,
浸透我全人各部，
Drawing many men to Thee—
好引多人歸向主－
Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord! Amen, Lord!
阿們，主！阿們，主！阿們，主！
