| 1 | In those regenerated by the Lord |
| | There is an inner knowledge bountiful; |
| | Thus we the outward teachings do not need, |
| | But God we inwardly may know in full. |
| 2 | Eternal life, the highest and the best, |
| | Possesses full divine capacity, |
| | That by this life God’s knowledge we may have |
| | More than by knowledge given outwardly. |
| 3 | The law of life is put within our mind |
| | And on our heart ‘tis written sovereignly, |
| | Inwardly ruling us that God we know |
| | More than by teachings given outwardly. |
| 4 | Holy anointing in our spirit dwells, |
| | Showing the things of God to mind and heart; |
| | By this anointing we God’s knowledge have |
| | More than man’s teachings can to us impart. |
| 5 | We have the triune God indwelling us, |
| | Living and acting, working all the time, |
| | That by the inner sense we have of Him |
| | God we may know in magnitude sublime. |
| 6 | This inner knowledge obviates the need |
| | Of outward knowledge, human eloquence, |
| | But in the spirit we must ever live |
| | And walk according to the inner sense. |
| 7 | The more we live in Christ, the life divine, |
| | And by the inner consciousness behave, |
| | The more we’ll have the inward knowledge true, |
| | And on our heart God will His Son engrave. |
| 8 | ’Tis by this living inward knowledge gained |
| | That fellowship with God in life we hold; |
| | ’Tis by this hidden knowledge thus obtained |
| | God unto us His fulness doth unfold. |
