Well may this glowing heart rejoice, and tell its raptures all abroad. 2 'Tis done, the work of grace is done! I am my Lord's, and he is mine! He drew me, and I followed on, glad to confess the voice divine. 3 Now rest, my long-divided heart, fixed on this blissful centre, rest; not ever from thy Lord depart, with him of every goo possessed. 4 High heav'n, that heard the solemn vow, that vow renewed shall daily hear; till in life's latest hour I bow, and bless in death a bond so dear.
