THE INCARNATION by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: SAVE THROUGH THE FLESH THOU WOULDST NOT COME TO ME
Last Line: AND LIFT TO HEAVEN A LOST HUMANITY.
Subject(s): INCARNATION;

SAVE through the flesh Thou wouldst not come to me --
The flesh, wherein Thy strength my weakness found
A weight to bow Thy Godhead to the ground,
And lift to Heaven a lost humanity.
