<p>How vast the benefits divine which we in Christ possess!<br>
|
|
We are redeemed from guilt and shame and called to holiness.<br>
|
|
But not for works which we have done, or shall hereafter do,<br>
|
|
Hath God decreed on sinful men salvation to bestow.</p>
|
|
<p>The glory, Lord, from first to last, is due to Thee alone;<br>
|
|
Aught to ourselves we dare not take, or rob Thee of Thy crown.<br>
|
|
Our glorious Surety undertook to satisfy for man,<br>
|
|
And grace was given us in Him before the world began.</p>
|
|
<p>This is Thy will, that in Thy love we ever should abide;<br>
|
|
That earth and hell should not prevail to turn Thy Word aside.<br>
|
|
Not one of all the chosen race but shall to heav’n attain,<br>
|
|
Partake on earth the purposed grace and then with Jesus reign.</p>
