The Wonders of REDEEMING LOVE. I DEAR Father, we thee bless, 3 What faw the Lamb in man, To draw the rebel from hell's gates With cords and bands of love! 4 A love that was not quench'd By death or deepest wound, Nor by deep streams of wrath and blood; 5 A glorious crown he left A thorny crown to wear! And on his bruifed wounded back 6 Mens fins, each was a thorn, By them thy bleffed flesh was torn ; Let men view fin with fear! 7 Yet garments dy'd with blood, The thorns thy head that tare, 8 Our flain Lamb now appears Before God's awful throne; There offers up our praife and pray'rs : He takes them from his Son, 9 Let faints and angels join The dear love to proclaim Of 1 Of him that fits upon the throne, HYMN XV. The LAMB flain. 1 HOW moving is the fight I fee! My God nail'd bleeding to a tree! Let countless myriads of men With pierc'd hearts cry, the Lamb is flain. Hard is the heart that feels no pain This glorious truth, the Lamb is flain. Till I fhall peace with God obtain, JESUS his Name fragrant. 1 CHRIST JESUS is the Lamb that's flain, To fave the very worst of men : No No name like Jefus founds to me, For JESUS brings falvation free. 2 JESUS his name doth finners tell, His works to fave from fin and hell: All fweetness centers in his name; My naming it makes love to flame. 3 When funk are names of greatest worth, "His name's like ointment poured forth ;" It spreads a fragrant scent around, And brings refreshing with its found. 4 JESUS his name charms heart and ear, Makes me content his cross to bear : His name doth chear my fainting soul, And makes my wounded spirit whole. His Name to me is a strong tow'r, 5 It faves me from the wrathful show'r : From finking downward in the deep. HYMN XVII. The crucified JESUS. 1 CHRIST crucified fhall be the fong My Lord, my Love is crucify'd. He He shed when in my place he flood: From love he stretch'd his arms and dy`d; My Lord, my Love is crucify’d. 3 To me his bonds do freedom buy, And bring to glorious liberty; The cruel fcoffs he bore from foes To me obtain divine applause. Of Christ I'll fing, let men deride; My Lord, my Love is crucify'd. 4 The ftrokes he got on back and face Raze out the marks of my difgrace; The thorny crown which he endur'd, A crown of life for me procur'd, Let ftill this fong with me abide, My Lord, my Love is crucify'd 5 On's back he bore the bloody tree, Push'd forward by the foldiery; Pity'd by none, by all blasphem'd Infulted, hated and condemn'd: In all he wondrous love display'd; My Lord, my Love is crucify'd.6 His difciples were fled and gone, The wine-prefs he must tread alone : He's pierc'd in head, in hands and feet, Till ftreams of blood each other meet. Why should I think of ought befide? My Lord, my Love is crucify'd, HYMN XVIIĮ. Know CHRIST crucified. 7 CHRIST crucify'd is all my blefs, In all my ftraits I'll him address, His wounds and blood do make me whole; Look up, and live, each fin-fick foul; If you would have all wants fupply'd, "Know Jefus, and him crucify'd. 2 That bloody fweat of Chrift's fo free, Thofe nails which gave him torture vaft. |
