HYMN 87. A Hymn of Praise for the New-birth.

1

You that are born again rejoyce,
and sing God's Praises forth;
With one accord lift up your Voice,
who experience the new Birth:

2

And you that are not yet renew'd,
have cause to sing also;
Because God doth afford the means,
through which this Grace doth flow.

3

But none sweet Music truly make,
in God's most holy Ear,
But such who do thy Grace partake,
and truly changed are.

4

O Tremble then, and take good Heed,
rejoyce with holy Dread;
Lord whilst we live let's sing thy Praise,
and do it as we read!

5

Ev'n sing with Grace in all our Hearts,
and with thy Spirit too,
Do thou inrich our inward parts,
that we thy Praise may shew.
