HOW happy we live,

Who in Jefus believe,

And are come to the city of God!

No fin can be there,

No curfe, guilt, nor fear;

For Chrift has made peace with his blood.

2 By faith we are come

To Zion our home;

There hope does the rapture improve:
By love, too, we rife,

With joyful surprise,

And oh! what a heaven is love!

Hallelujah, we cry,

To Jefus on high,

To the great everlasting I AM.
The Lamb that was flain,

Now liveth again,

Hallelujah to God and the Lamb.

Thee we own a perfect Saviour, Only fource of all that's good; Every grace and every favour Come to us through Jesus' blood. 2 Jefus gives us true repentance, By his Spirit fent from heav'n ; Jefus whispers this sweet sentence, "Son, thy fins are all forgiv'n.' Faith he gives us to believe it; Grateful hearts his love to prize. Want we wisdom? He must give it, Hearing ears, and seeing eyes. 3 Jefus gives us pure affections; Wills to do what he requires; Makes us follow his directions, And what he commands inspires. All our pray'rs and all our praises, If they're offer'd in his name, He who dictates them is Jefus ; He who answers them-the fame.

3

To our relief he flies,

4

He flies from realms above,

Anfwers our pray'rs in fweet replies,
And tokens of his love:

Shall we not witness bear
How faithful he has been;
And boldly to the world declare
Salvation we have seen?

Jefus Jehovah is the Lord,
The God whom we confess,

The Prince of Peace-the Living Word-
The Lord our righteousness.
The Saviour's name we praise,
Who triumph'd over Death;
And we, the fubjects of his grace,
Shall triumph too by faith.

Dependance.

Him hath God exalted to be a Prince and a Saviour,
to give repentance and forgiveness of fins. Acts v. 31.
Every good and perfect gift is from above. Jam. i. 17.
Of his fullness have all we received. John i. 17.

LAMB of God, we fall before thee,
Humbly trufting in thy cross;

That alone is all our glory,

All things elfe are dung and drofs.

Thee we own a perfect Saviour,
Only fource of all that's good;
Every grace and every favour
Come to us through Jesus' blood.
2 Jefus gives us true repentance,
By his Spirit fent from heav'n;
Jefus whispers this sweet sentence,
"Son, thy fins are all forgiv'n.'
Faith he gives us to believe it;
Grateful hearts his love to prize.
Want we wisdom? He must give it,
Hearing ears, and seeing eyes.

3 Jefus gives us pure affections;
Wills to do what he requires;
Makes us follow his directions,
And what he commands infpires.
All our pray'rs and all our praises,
If they're offer'd in his name,
He who dictates them is Jefus ;
He who answers them-the fame.

Accefs with Confidence.

There is no condemnation to them who are in Chrift Jefus. Rom. viii. 1.

Neither Death nor Life-nor any other creature, Jhall feparate us from the love of God. Rom. viii.

39.

If our hearts condemn us not, then have we confidence towards God. 1 John iii. 21.

A

DEBTOR to mercy alone,
Of covenant mercy I fing;

Nor fear, with thy righteousness on, My perfon and off'ring to bring. 2 The terrors of law and of God

With me can have nothing to do;
My Saviour's obedience and blood
Hide all my tranfgreffions from view.
3 The work which his goodness began,
The arm of his strength will complete;
His promife is YEA and AMEN,

And never was forfeited yet.

4 Things future, nor things that are now,
Not all things below nor above,
Can make him his purpofe forego,
Nor fever my foul from his love.
