Shall man thus ungrateful then prove? Forbid it, O God of all grace; Forbid it, thou spirit of love! 3 The devils would laugh us to scorn, For folly so shameful as this; O let us to God then return, Sure never was goodness like his.] 4 He sav'd us, or we had been lost, Nor comfort nor hope had e'er known; Yet he knew this salvation would cost No less than the blood of his son. 5 Thro' him we forgiveness shall find, And taste the sweet blessings of peace, If contrite and humbly resign'd, We trust in his promised grace, 6 This world then with all its gay joy, That its thousands has snar'd and undone, May tempt, but shall never destroy, Whom Jesus has mark'd for his own. 7 While here thro' the desert we stray, Our God shall be all our delight, Our pillar of cloud in the day, And also of fire in the night: 8 'Till, 'th' Jordan of death safely pass'd, We land on the heavenly shore, Where we the hid manna shall taste, Nor hunger nor thirst any more. 9 And there while his glories we see, And feast on the joys of his love, We chang'd to his likeness shall be, And then shall all gratitude prove.

Rapt at th' approach of Isr'el’s King, They speak the Monarch nigh. 2 Why does the King approach our land? Comes he with terror in his hand, The merit of our crimes? Shepherds be glad: he comes with peace, Not wrath but universal grace, To bless e'en distant climes. 3 See Heav'n’s great heir, a woman’s son! Behold a manger is his throne! Nay, see him born to die: Your is the guilt, but his the pain: His are the sorrows, yours the gain: Then let his praise be high. 4 Come, mighty King! the grace enhance, (A stable was thy palace once) Dwell in these hearts of ours: Teach us to praise the Father's love, Till blest, transported, fir'd above, We sing with nobler pow'rs.

The Glories of Redemption

Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide thy glory shines! How high thy wonders rise! Known thro' the earth by thousand signs, By thousands thro' the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim thy pow'r, Their motions speak thy skill; And on the wings of ev'ry hour We read thy patience still. 3 Part of thy mane divinely stands On all thy creatures writ, They shew the labour of thy hands, The impress of thy feet. 4 But when we view thy grand design To save rebellious worms, Where wisdom, pow'r, and goodness shine, In their most glorious forms; 5 Our thoughts are lost in rev'rend awe; We love, and we adore; The holy angels never saw So much of God before. 6 Here God hath made his nature known, And thought can never trace, Which of his glories brightest shone, In our Redeemer's face. 7 O the sweet myst'ries of that cross Where Jesus lov'd and died! Her noblest life my spirit draws From his dear wounded side. 8 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heav'nly plains; Sweet cherubs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 9 O may I bear some humble part In that immortal song! Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue. Scripture: Isaiah 1:1-3 Languages: English
