[The wonders of grace Redeem'd we proclaim]
The wonders of grace Redeem'd we proclaim,
The virtues confess Of Jesus's name;
Our whole conversation To Jesus doth tend,
To final salvation, And joy without end.
The virtues confess Of Jesus's name;
Our whole conversation To Jesus doth tend,
To final salvation, And joy without end.
We rise with the sun, To commune of Him;
And when we lie down, He still is our theme:
Recording His praises, We sink on His breast,
And in His embraces With confidence rest.
And when we lie down, He still is our theme:
Recording His praises, We sink on His breast,
And in His embraces With confidence rest.

Of Jesus our Friend We talk by the way,
His goodness commend, His Spirit obey;
By short aspirations His succour implore,
And kept in temptations Rejoice evermore.
His goodness commend, His Spirit obey;
By short aspirations His succour implore,
And kept in temptations Rejoice evermore.
O Saviour, appear, To finish our sin,
In love without fear Thy nature bring in:
We then in the Spirit Of purity rise,
Thy joy to inherit, Thy throne in the skies.
In love without fear Thy nature bring in:
We then in the Spirit Of purity rise,
Thy joy to inherit, Thy throne in the skies.
