|
|
<p>Join all the glorious names<br>
|
|
Of wisdom, love, and power,<br>
|
|
That ever mortals knew,<br>
|
|
That angels ever bore:<br>
|
|
All are too mean to speak His worth,<br>
|
|
To poor to set my Savior forth.</p>
|
|
<p>But O what gentle terms,<br>
|
|
What condescending ways,<br>
|
|
Doth our Redeemer use<br>
|
|
To teach his heav’nly grace!<br>
|
|
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see<br>
|
|
What forms of love He bears for me.</p>
|
|
<p>Arrayed in mortal flesh,<br>
|
|
He like an angel stands,<br>
|
|
And holds the promises<br>
|
|
And pardons in His hands;<br>
|
|
Commissioned from His Father’s throne<br>
|
|
To make His grace to mortals known.</p>
|
|
<p>Great Prophet of my God,<br>
|
|
My tongue would bless Thy Name,<br>
|
|
By Thee the joyful news<br>
|
|
Of our salvation came,<br>
|
|
The joyful news of sin forgiv’n<br>
|
|
Of hell subdued, and peace with heav’n.</p>
|
|
<p>Be Thou my Counsellor,<br>
|
|
My Pattern, and my Guide,<br>
|
|
And through this desert land<br>
|
|
Still keep me near thy side:<br>
|
|
Nor let my feet e’er run astray<br>
|
|
Nor rove nor seek the crooked way.</p>
|
|
<p>I love my Shepherd’s voice,<br>
|
|
His watchful eyes shall keep<br>
|
|
My wand’ring soul among<br>
|
|
The thousands of His sheep:<br>
|
|
He feeds His flock, He calls their names,<br>
|
|
His bosom bears the tender lambs.</p>
|
|
<p>To this dear Surety’s hand<br>
|
|
Will I commit my cause;<br>
|
|
He answers and fulfils<br>
|
|
His Father’s broken laws:<br>
|
|
Behold my soul at freedom set!<br>
|
|
My Surety paid the dreadful debt.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus, my great High Priest,<br>
|
|
Offered His blood, and died;<br>
|
|
My guilty conscience seeks<br>
|
|
No sacrifice beside:<br>
|
|
His powerful blood did once atone,<br>
|
|
And now it pleads before the throne.</p>
|
|
<p>My Advocate appears<br>
|
|
For my defense on high;<br>
|
|
The Father bows his ears,<br>
|
|
And lays his thunder by:<br>
|
|
Not all that hell or sin can say<br>
|
|
Shall turn his heart, his love away.</p>
|
|
<p>My dear almighty Lord,<br>
|
|
My Conqueror and my King,<br>
|
|
Thy scepter and Thy sword,<br>
|
|
Thy reigning grace I sing:<br>
|
|
Thine is the power; behold I sit<br>
|
|
In willing bonds beneath Thy feet.</p>
|
|
<p>Now let my soul arise,<br>
|
|
And tread the tempter down;<br>
|
|
My Captain leads me forth<br>
|
|
To conquest and a crown:<br>
|
|
A feeble saint shall win the day,<br>
|
|
Though death and hell obstruct the way.</p>
|
|
<p>Should all the hosts of death,<br>
|
|
And powers of hell unknown,<br>
|
|
Put their most dreadful forms<br>
|
|
Of rage and mischief on,<br>
|
|
I shall be safe, for Christ displays<br>
|
|
Superior power, and guardian grace.</p>
