Hail dear Redeemer! live and reign,
Thou Lamb for finful Mankind flain,

Exalted high in Truth, and Grace !

O fave us, Lord, from this Day's Sin :
Remain our Saviour ftill, and be
Our Hope, our Guard eternally.

Into thy Hands, we, finful Duft,
Our Souls commend, our Bodies truft:
Nor doubt we, but our only Friend
Loves, and will love us to the End.

HYMN

CXXXIX.

Praise to the Redeemer.

EGIN, ye Saints, the happy Song,.
Let Love infpire the Theme,
'Tis Jefus's Grace

That calls for our Praife,

'Twas Jefus alone did redeem.

When Juftice fix'd the Sinner's Fate
In endless Woe to dwell,

'Twas Jefus that flood,

Refifting to Blood,

And ranfom'd the Sinner from Hell,

Our only Advocate and Friend,
The mighty Work he wrought;
When he bow'd his Head,
'Tis finif'd, he said ;

O Sinner, exult at the Thought "

A fpotless Victim to the Cross
Himself he thus refign'd,

Then enter'd the Grave

The Wretched to fave,

The Poor, and the Halt, and the Blind.

Lo! now in Blifs our Caufe he pleads, 'Till we behold his Face: Unchangeable Love

To us he will prove,

Eternal in Mercy and Grace..

Then let us lift our loudeft Praise

To Sion's holy King;

He's worthy we own

Who fits on the Throne; Hofannah to Jefus we fing.

From yonder heav'nly Choir!

How glorious the Song

Of that happy Throng!

To him, whom All Nations defire!

Behold what Glories fill the Skies!
Hear how they chant his Praife;

"Good Tidings we bring,
"Great Foy from your King;
Fear not 'Tis a Meffage of Grace,

"All Glory be to God afcribed,"
Who reigns enthron'd on high;
"Lo! Peace upon Earth,"
At JESUS's Birth,

"Good-Will unto Man" is their Cry.

Hail, "EVERLASTING FATHER," hail?
And yet th' INCARNATE SON;
Tho' "THE MIGHTY LORD,”
Thy Name be ador'd,

An Infant in Time art become.

Welcome the dear-lov'd "PRINCE OF PEACE,"
Born that we ne'er might die;
The "COUNSELLOR'S" Fame,
Of "WONDERFULL" Name,

We fing in a Rapture of Joy.

Loud Hallelujah's reach the Sky
At our IMMANUEL's Birth,
The "ANTIENT OF DAYS,"
His Mercy difplays,
While born of a Virgin on Earth.

Borne on Angel's Wings to Heaven,
Glad the Summons to obey,
