[According to Thy faithful word]

They shall be Mine, saith the Lord of Hosts, &c. —iii. 17.

According to Thy faithful word
It then shall surely be,
Thou wilt remember us, O Lord,
Who now remember Thee;
To seek, and challenge us for Thine,
Thou wilt from heaven come down,
And we around Thy head shall shine,
As jewels of Thy crown.
