HYMN 83. The Saints Holy Triumph in Christ.

1

Come lets Triumph in the dear Lamb,
our Lord, who once did Die;
We that believe in Jesus, shall
have everlasting joy.

2

Come Law of God, what hast thou now
of Saints for to demand?
Thy Curses all did meet in Christ,
who did our Surety stand?

3

Come Justice, where is now thy Charge?
what hast thou now to shew?
We do to thee present the Blood
that from Christ's sides did flow:

4

O blessed Wisdom infinite,
'tis thou hast done the thing;
Justice and Mercy now are join'd,
by our most blessed King!

5

But woe to such who slight this Grace,
Salvation to neglect;
God's Attributes with angry face
will them at last reject:

6

But Saints shall Hallelujahs sing,
because they are set free;
Their Crowns they throw, Lord, at thy feet,
and will give Praise to Thee.
