[Great Founder of Thy church, in Thee]

They shall see the plummet in the hand, &c. —iv. 10.

Great Founder of Thy church, in Thee
Our true Zerubbabel we see;
We see the plummet in Thy hand:
To Thee the Spirit, one and seven,
In various gifts and graces given,
Subdues the world to Thy command.
Jehovah's eyes, with Thee they are:
Thy wise and providential care,
Which doth the universe sustain,
Is chiefly for Thy saints employ'd,
Till all Thy saints are lost in God,
And thus their full perfection gain.
