1. GLORIOUS things of thee are spoken, He, whose word cannot be broken, What can shake thy sure repose? 2. There the streams of living waters, Well supply thy sons and daughters, Blessings, like the Lord, the giver, 3. Blest are all in thee residing, Wash'd from sin through Jesus' blood, He, within their hearts abiding, Makes them kings and priests to God: Over self to reign as kings; Each for a thank-off'ring brings. NEWTON. 1. BLEST Redeemer ! power in heaven And in earth to Thee is given; Teach us, Lord, aright to pray, Lead and guide us in Thy way. 2. Lo! we make Thy paths our choice, Grace we ask t' obey Thy voice; Grace to follow where Thy hand Points the way, or bids us stand. 3. Counting all things loss for Thee, Lest the world or sin ensnare, 4. Faith and patience, Lord, impart, 1. COME, O Saviour, long expected, 2. Israel's strength and consolation, 3. Born Thy people to deliver; 4. By Thine own eternal Spirit, By thine all-sufficient merit, Raise us to Thy glorious throne. |
