Adam, Our Father and Our Head

A song I found and want to keep:

Adam, Our Father and Our Head
Watts

L. M.

1. Adam, our father and our head,
Transgressed, and Justice doomed us dead.
The fiery law speaks all despair,
There's no reprieve nor pardon there.

2, Call a bright council in the skies,
Seraphs, the mighty and the wise,
Speak: are you strong to bear the load,
The weighty vengeance of a God?

3. In vain we ask; for all around
Stand silent through the heav'nly ground;
There's not a glorious mind above
Has half the strength or half the love.

4. But Oh! Unmeasurable grace!
The Son of God takes up our place;
Down to our world the Savior flies,
And for his unborn children dies.

5. Amazing work! Look down ye skies,
Wonder and gaze with all your eyes!
Ye saints below and saints above,
All bow to his mysterious love.
