<pre>Hymn 93
4 6s & 2 8s.
1. No man had yet seen God
At any time on earth,
Until I AM the word
Did manifest the truth,
When from the heavens to earth he came
To magnify the Father's name.

2. He came unto his own,
And they received him not,
He journeyed up and down,
Their cities round about,
Imparting power to all who would
Through faith become the sons of God.

3. He soon became despised
By carnal man on earth,
The wealthy, proud, and wise,
Disdained his humble birth,
And would not come to him, that they
Might have the light of gospel day.

4. They called him 'Nazarine,'
'Deceiver,' 'Beelzebub;'
The 'carpenter' was mean,
And only fit to grub;
Had no authority to teach,
Expound the law, or gospel preach.

5. But truth is very strong,
And ever will prevail,
Though all men may be wrong,
The truth can never fail,
To execute the wondrous plan,
To save poor fallen guilty man.

6. The works which he did do,
No other could perform,
Did gather up the few
Who willing were to come,
And learn his heavenly Father's will,
That they with him might it fulfil.

7. Whoever will be wise,
May still obey his word,
Repent, and be baptized,
Which will their faith record,
Among his saints, the heirs of heaven,
They then will know their sins forgiven.

8. The heavenly comforter,
His people all receive,
Thro' "Him" the Savior hear,
And, hearing, they believe;
And thus the things unseen they know,
When faith pronounces "they are true."</pre>
