|
|
<p>Hail, sovereign love that first began,<br>
|
|
The scheme to rescue fallen man;<br>
|
|
Hail matchless free eternal grace,<br>
|
|
That gave my soul a hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>Against the God who rules the sky,<br>
|
|
I fought with hand uplifted high,<br>
|
|
Despised the mention of His grace,<br>
|
|
Too proud to seek a hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>Enwrapped in thick Egyptian night,<br>
|
|
And fond of darkness more than light,<br>
|
|
Madly I ran the sinful race,<br>
|
|
Secure without a hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>But thus th’ eternal counsel ran,<br>
|
|
“Almighty Love, arrest that man!”<br>
|
|
I felt the arrows of distress,<br>
|
|
And found I had no hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>Indignant justice stood in view,<br>
|
|
To Sinai’s fiery mount I flew,<br>
|
|
But Justice cried with frowning face,<br>
|
|
“This mountain is no hiding place!”</p>
|
|
<p>Ere long a heavenly voice I heard,<br>
|
|
And Mercy’s angel form appeared.<br>
|
|
Who led me on with gentle pace,<br>
|
|
To Jesus Christ, my hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>On Him Almighty vengeance fell,<br>
|
|
That must have sunk a world to hell;<br>
|
|
He bore it for a chosen race,<br>
|
|
And thus became their hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>Should storms of sevenfold vengeance roll,<br>
|
|
And shake this earth from pole to pole;<br>
|
|
No flaming bolt could daunt my face,<br>
|
|
For Jesus is my hiding place.</p>
|
|
<p>A few more rolling suns at most,<br>
|
|
Shall land me safe on heaven’s coast.<br>
|
|
There I shall sing the song of grace,<br>
|
|
To Jesus Christ, my hiding place!</p>
