Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 336 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
Of wisdom, love, and power,
That ever mortals knew,
That angels ever bore:
All are too mean to speak His worth,
Too mean to set my Saviour forth.
2 But O! what gentle terms,
What condescending ways,
Doth our Redeemer use
To teach His heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see
What forms of love He bears for me.
3 Arrayed in mortal flesh,
The Covenant-Angel stands,
And holds the promises
And pardons in his hands:
Commissioned from his Father's throne
To make His grace to mortals known.
4 Great Prophet of my God,
My tongue would bless thy name:
By thee the joyful news
Of our salvation came,–
The joyful news of sins forgiven,
Of hell subdued, and peace with Heaven. Topics: Worship of the Son Used With Tune: CLAREMONT
