Kieran's Hymn text (revised, but still incomplete)



Behold the one who knew you first
before the world began
Who made the garden paradise
and placed the stars o'rhead
who made the river's endless streams
and fowl's endless skies
He made the world by spoken means
with order recognized.


Insert 2nd verse about moralists condemned (romans 2-3)


Behold, to justify himself
how little man is fit
How precious that the Lamb of God,
his own death would permit.
the Righteous Sovereign's holiness
damns more than we could bleed
Christ offered self as sacrifice
to satisfy our need


Behold the firstborn from the dead,
the great Creator, King
Who by His hands, we now abide
and by His hands exist
For you were once His enemies
and did your evil deeds
He reconciled you by his grace
His blood and cross make peace
C.M.D. DEAR REFUGE
