And made his Mercy known;
"Sinners, behold, your Help is laid
"On my Almighty Son."
2 Behold the Man my Wisdom chose
Among your mortal Race;
His Head my holy Oil o'erflows,
The Spirit of my Grace.
3 High shall he reign on David's Throne,
My People's better King;
My Arm shall beat his Rivals down,
And still new Subjects bring.
4 My Truth shall guard him in his Way,
With Mercy by his Side,
While in my Name through Earth and Sea
He shall in Triumph ride.
5 Me for his Father, and his God
He shall for ever own,
Call me his Rock, his high Abode,
And I'll support my Son.
6 My first-born Son array'd in Grace
At my Right-hand shall sit;
Beneath him Angels know their Place,
And Monarchs at his Feet.
7 My Cov'nant stands for ever fast,
My Promises are strong;
Firm as the Heav'ns his Throne shall last,
His Seed endure as long.
