<p>How can we sinners know<br>
|
|
Our sins on earth forgiven?<br>
|
|
How can my gracious Savior show<br>
|
|
My name inscribed in heaven?</p>
|
|
<p>What we have felt and seen,<br>
|
|
With confidence we tell,<br>
|
|
And publish to the ends of earth<br>
|
|
The signs infallible.</p>
|
|
<p>We who in Christ believe<br>
|
|
That He for us hath died,<br>
|
|
We all His unknown peace receive<br>
|
|
And feel His blood applied.</p>
|
|
<p>Exults for joy our rising soul,<br>
|
|
Disburthened of her load,<br>
|
|
And swells, unutterably full<br>
|
|
Of glory and of God.</p>
|
|
<p>His love surpasses far<br>
|
|
The love of all beneath,<br>
|
|
We find within, and dare<br>
|
|
The pointless darts of death.</p>
|
|
<p>Stronger than death, or sin, or hell,<br>
|
|
The mystic power we prove,<br>
|
|
And conquerors of the world we dwell<br>
|
|
In heaven, who dwell in love.</p>
|
|
<p>We by His Spirit prove<br>
|
|
And know the things of God,<br>
|
|
The things which freely of His love<br>
|
|
He hath on us bestowed.</p>
|
|
<p>The meek and lowly heart<br>
|
|
That in our Savior was,<br>
|
|
To us that Spirit doth impart<br>
|
|
And sign us with His cross.</p>
|
|
<p>Our nature’s turned, our mind<br>
|
|
Transformed in all its powers,<br>
|
|
And both the witnesses are joined,<br>
|
|
The Spirit of God with ours.</p>
|
|
<p>His glory is our sole design,<br>
|
|
We live our God to please,<br>
|
|
And rise with filial fear divine<br>
|
|
To perfect holiness.</p>
|
|
<p>The Spirit of my God<br>
|
|
Hath certified Him mine,<br>
|
|
And all the tokens showed,<br>
|
|
Infallible, divine.</p>
|
|
<p>Hereby the pardoned sinner knows<br>
|
|
His sins on earth forgiven,<br>
|
|
And thus my gracious Savior shows<br>
|
|
My name inscribed in heaven.</p>
