| 1 | For the glorious revelation |
| | | Of the sons of God to come, |
| | All the creatures wait, expecting, |
| | | That they all may free become. |
| 2 | All creation groans together, |
| | | Subject now to vanity, |
| | Looking for their full deliv’rance |
| | | From corruption’s slavery. |
| 3 | Even we ourselves are groaning, |
| | | Till we reach maturity; |
| | We are growing into sonship, |
| | | With Christ in conformity. |
| 4 | ’Tis for this the Spirit groaneth, |
| | | That to Christ we be conformed; |
| | All things also work together, |
| | | That in life we be transformed. |
| 5 | God will bring us into glory, |
| | | We will then be glorified; |
| | Fully saturated with Him, |
| | | We’ll be wholly sanctified. |
| 6 | To the freedom of this glory, |
| | | All creation will be freed; |
| | With the kid shall lie the leopard, |
| | | And the cow with bear shall feed. |
| 7 | Heirs with Christ in our full sonship, |
| | | We’ll His heritage possess, |
| | Glorified with Him as brethren, |
| | | God’s full glory we’ll express. |
