1 Timothy 3:14-16
International Standard Version

14 I hope to come to you soon. However, I’m writing this to you 15 in case I am delayed, so that you may know how to behave in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth. 16 By common confession, the secret of our godly worship is great:[a]

In flesh was he[b] revealed to sight,
    vindicated by the Spirit’s might,
        adored by angels singing.[c]
To nations was he manifest,
    believing souls found peace and rest,[d]
        our Lord in heaven reigning![e]
