ANOTHER.

[Lord, if Thy sovereign majesty]

Lord, if Thy sovereign majesty
Doth still vouchsafe to send by me,
Even me Thy meanest servant own,
And make Thy Son to sinners known.
Thy presence, and Thy help afford
To ratify the gracious word,
The' attesting Spirit's seal set to,
To prove the joyful tidings true.
If Thou the genuine gospel bless,
They must Thy saving power confess,
Whoe'er in Jesu's blood believe,
And peace and righteousness receive.
Come then, in blessings from above,
Thy Godhead, truth, and mercy prove,
The gift unspeakable impart,
And write Thy name on every heart.
