[Be bold in Jesus to confide]

For thy Maker is thine Husband; &c. —liv. 5.

Be bold in Jesus to confide,
His creature, and His spotless bride,
Thy Husband's power and goodness prove:
The Holy One of Israel He,
The Lord of hosts hath chosen thee,
In truth, and righteousness, and love.
The middle wall is broken down,
And God to every nation known,
Exalted on His throne of grace,
Shall reign by the whole earth adored,
Sole, sovereign, universal Lord,
God over all the ransom'd race.
