Testament

 

The ark of testimony contained the manna, law and budding rod

And covering them was the bloodstained mighty mercy seat of God.

Where sacrifice was made and propitiation was paid in blood.

Propitiation paid in blood

The manna that fed sufficiently, the tablets where God wrote His law

The priestly rod of authority served as testimony To all Israel saw

So they might worship God in awe

So they might worship God in awe

The virgin Mary’s womb contains God’s promis of the "woman’s seed"

He split this vail through labor’s pains becomiong flesh so he could bleed.

His heel would be wounded and though he were dead

He’d stand to cruch the serpent’s head

This bread of life’s sufficiency fulfilled God’s holy law

High priestly in his authority, he’s sleeping in a stable’s straw

Let every soul bow down in awe

Let every soul bow down in awe...
