[God they went, the persons Three]
Even like Israel, whom God went to
redeem. [Heb. God they went.]
2 Samuel vii. 23.
God
they went, the persons Three,
His Israel to redeem;
Still the glorious Trinity
In majesty supreme,
Listening to our plaintive groan,
Afflicted with our misery,
Comes to make His wonders known,
And set His people free.
God hath Israel visited;
His Son the Father gave;
Jesus came, and freely shed
His blood our souls to save:
Comes the Spirit into our hearts,
Our guilty burden to remove,
Peace the Comforter imparts
And liberty and love.
