HYMN 20. Deliverance from the Pit: Or, A Hymn of Thanksgiving for Gospel Salvation.
1
How great is this Salvation, Lord,Which thou for us hast wrought,
By Jesus Christ our dearest Friend,
Who our poor Souls hath bought.
2
Thou didst behold us when we laypolluted in our Sin;
And to wash us found out a way
to make us clean agin.
3
We Slaves of Sin and Satan were,and in strong bonds were bound;
And when we were near to the Pit
a Ransom then was found:
4
Thy Son out of Thy Bosome came,our Souls to set quite free:
All Praise unto the blessed Lamb,
and equal Praise to Thee.
5
Of this Salvation we will Sing,and will with one Accord
Praise Thee, from whom all Blessings spring;
ye Saints praise ye the Lord.
26
6
Thou Sav'st our Souls, O save this Land,great things, Lord, Thou wilt do;
O haste, O Lord, quickly appear,
salvation-wonders show.
7
Our Dust shall wake, our Souls unite,and then our Glory shine;
Our Happiness shall be compleat;
Halelujah; Amen.
