God, in the Gospel of His Son

  1. God, in the gospel of his Son,
    makes his eternal counsels known;
    where love in all its glory shines,
    and truth is drawn in fairest lines.
  2. Here sinners of a humble frame
    may taste his grace and learn his name;
    may read, in characters of blood,
    the wisdom, pow’r, and grace of God.
  3. The pris’ner here may break his chains;
    the weary rest from all his pains;
    the captive feel his bondage cease;
    the mourner find the way of peace.
  4. Here faith reveals to mortal eyes
    a brighter world beyond the skies;
    here shines the light which guides our way
    from earth to realms of endless day.
  5. O grant us grace, almighty Lord,
    to read and mark your holy Word;
    its truths with meekness to receive,
    and by its holy precepts live.
