Behold the Woman’s Promised Seed

Behold the wo­man’s pro­mised seed!

Behold the great Mes­si­ah come!

Behold the pro­phets all agreed

To give Him the su­pe­ri­or room!

Abra’m

the saint

re­joiced of old

When vi­sions of the Lord he saw;

Moses

the man of God

fore­told

This great ful­fill­er of his law.

The types bore wit­ness to His name

Obtained their chief de­sign

and ceased;

The in­cense and the bleed­ing lamb

The ark

the al­tar

and the priest.

Predictions in abun­dance meet

To join their bless­ings on His head:

Jesus

we wor­ship at Thy feet

And na­tions on the pro­mised Seed.
