New Creation

He comes on chariot of clouds,
Descends to rescue fallen earth.
We hear a voice not shrill and loud,
But Baby sounds at His new birth—

For He’s New Adam born to save
Through us His world in Adam fell,
And with His death He will us raise—
Breaks hold on us of Satan’s spell.

His Body’s raised from empty tomb
With promise He’ll transform us all
As we’re raised up from Adam’s doom
With Body that’s beyond our fall.

New persons now we each become—
With glory readies each of us;
We taste within what we’ve become—
For new world raised from earthly dust.

With springs He’ll water with His life
His new creation comes to be—
A world made free of sinful strife,
And only goodness now we see.
