Hymn 138

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #II.138 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: This is the word of truth and love Lyrics: This is the word of truth and love, Sent to the nations from above; Jehovah here resolves to show What his almighty grace can do. This remedy did wisdom find To heal diseases of the mind; This sovereign balm, whose virtues can Restore the ruined creature, man. The gospel bids the dead revive, Sinners obey the voice, and live; Dry bones are raised and clothed afresh, And hearts of stone are turned to flesh. [Where Satan reigned in shades of night The gospel strikes a heav'nly light; Our lusts its wondrous power controls, And calms the rage of angry souls.] [Lions and beasts of savage name Put on the nature of the lamb, While the wild world esteem it strange, Gaze, and admire, and hate the change.] May but this grace my soul renew, Let sinners gaze and hate me too! The word that saves me does engage A sure defence from all their rage. Languages: English
