HYMN 85. (S. M.) The same.
[The Lord on high proclaims]
I
The Lord on high proclaimsHis Godhead from his throne;
‘Mercy and Justice are the names
‘By which I will be known.
278
II
‘Ye dying souls that sit‘In darkness and distress,
‘Look from the borders of the pit
‘To my recovering grace.’
III
Sinners shall hear the sound;Their thankful tongues shall own
‘Our righteousness and strength is found
‘In thee, the Lord alone.’
IV
In thee shall Israel trust,And see their guilt forgiven;
God will pronounce the sinners just,
And take the saints to heaven.
