Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from ALL Iniquity. Tit. ii. xiv.

Esu, Redeemer of Mankind,
How little art Thou known

JES

By Sinners of a Carnal Mind,

Who claim Thee for Their own;

2. Who blafphemously call Thee LORD
With Lips, and Hearts unclean,

But make Thee, while they flight Thy Word,
The Minifter of Sin:

3. Who madly plead for Sin's Remains ;
While full of Slavish Fears,

They fancy Thou haft furg'd Their Stains,
And falfely call Thee Theirs.

4. O wretched Man, who dares divide
The Pardon, and the Peace!
In vain for Thee the Saviour died,
Unless He feal Thee His.

5. O wretched Mán, from Guilt to dream
Thy harden'd Conscience freed!

When JESUS doth a Soul redeem,
He makes it free indeed.

6. The Guilt and Power with all thy Art

Can never be disjoin'd,

Nor will GOD bid the Guilt depart,

And leave the Power behind.

7. Faith, when it comes, breaks Every Chain, And makes us truly free,

But CHRIST hath died for Thee in vain,
Unless He lives in Thee.

8. What is Redemption in His Blood,
But Liberty within ?

A Liberty to serve my GOD,
And to eschew my Sin.

9. What is our Calling's Glorious Hope,

But Inward Holinets?

For This to JESUS I look up,

I calmly wait for This.

10. I wait, till He fhall touch me clean,
Shall Life, and Power impart,
Give me a Faith that roots out Sin,
And purifies my Heart.

11. This is the dear redeeming Grace,
For every Sinner free :

Surely it fhall on me take Place,
The Chief of Sinners me.

12. From All Iniquity, from All

He fhall my Soul redeem :

In JESUS I believe, and fhall

Believe myself to Him.

13, When JESUS makes my Soul His Home,

My Sin fhall all depart:

And lo! He faith, "I quickly come,

To cleanse and fill thy Heart.

14. Be it according to Thy Word,

Redeem me from All Sin,

My Heart would now receive Thee, LORD:
Come in, my LORD, come in!

Deuteronomy xxxiii. 26, &c.

ONE is like Jefburon's GOD,
So great, fo ftrong, fo high,

Lo! He fpreads His Wings abroad,
He rides upon the Sky!
Ifrael, His First-born Son,

GOD, th' Eternal GoD is Thine,
See Him in thy Help come down,
The Excellence Divine.

2. Thee the Great JEHOVAH deigns
To fuccour and defend,
Thee th' Eternal GOD fuftains
Thy Maker, and thy Friend;.
Sinner, what haft Thou to dread ?
Safe from All impending Harms,,
God hath underneath Thee spread
His Everlasting Arms.

3. GOD is Thine: disdain to fear
The Enemy within,

GOD fhall in Thy Flesh appear,
And make an End of Sin;
GOD the Man of Sin shall slay,

Fill Thee with Triumphant Joy,
GOD fhall thurft Him out, and fay
Destroy them All, destroy.

4. All the Struggle then is o'er,
And Wars and Fightings ceafe,
Ifrael then fhall fin no more,
But dwell in perfect Peace :
All his Enemies are gone,
Sin fhall have in him no Part,
Ifrael now fhall dwell alone
With JESUS in his Heart.

5. In a Land of Corn, and Wine
His Lot fhall be below,
Comforts there, and Bleffings join,
And Milk and Honey flow;
Jacob's Well is in his Soul,

Gracious Dow his Heavens diftill,
Fill his Spirit already full,
And fhail forever fill.

6. Bleft, O Ifrael art Thou,
What People is like Thee?
Saved from Sin by Jesus now
Thou art, and still fhalt be;
JESUS is thy Seven-fold Shield,
JESUS is thy flaming Sword,
Earth, and Hell, and Sin fhall yield
To GoD's Almighty WORD.

7. GOD's Almighty Word, fhall ftand,
Thine Enemies fhall fall,
Fade away at His Command,
And fink, and perish All:

Lyars fhall they All be found,

All who cried It cannot be!
"Sin must always keep its Ground,
"Muft always dwell in Thee."

8. CHRIST fhall make Thee free indeed,
When He appears within,
Thou on Self and Pride fhalt tread,
On all the Strength of Sin,
Thou shalt more than conquer it,
Thou shalt fee it All depart,
See it dead beneath thy Feet,
No longer in thy Heart.

9. GOD, the gracious GoD and true,
Hath spoke the faithful Word;

He the mighty Work shall do,
Our Truft is in the LORD:

He the Mountain fhall remove, ›
He the Sinner shall restore,
He fhall perfect me in Love,
And I fhall fin no more.

Mark xi. 22, 23. 24.

Esu, my Truft is in Thy Word,
Thy Promife I receive,
