1. In spirit, in the church we see The high estate we're destined for. It's higher, vaster, more profound Than anything we've seen before. 2. It's not a view in doctrine bare But an unveiling of the Christ. He's marvelous and far beyond Our mental thought or power to share. 3. He's rich, unlimited, profound, Immeasurable, and marvelous. Yet 'tis a greater wonder still He needs heirs of salvation—us. 4. God has accomplished many things— He's planned, created, and brought forth. The Son is now appointed Heir, Administrator of God's worth. 5. But in th' economy of God There is not one, but many sons. One is the firstborn Son of God With many other living ones. 6. Christ will inherit all God's things, And we're heirs of God with Christ. We're growing now to be matured; As heirs we'll soon be legalized. 7. We're joint—heirs with the firstborn Son, Inheriting the universe. We're in this corporation vast— All partners of Christ and the church. 8. In spirit, in the church, we see Our calling of unrivaled worth. We're destined, not to go to heaven. We're destined to be kings one earth. 9. We're paupers, yet we're glorious kings. Inheriting the kingdom vast, The earth, God's throne, and e'en all things And all the Father is and has.
