HYMN 23. GOD's Glory display'd: Or, A Hymn of Praise on the great Salvation.
1
What was thy End, O holy God,in our salvation;
But thy own Glory? therefore we
will praise thee every one:
2
Shall Man assume some part of it?let him ashamed be;
All is of God, all is of Grace,
all glory be to Thee.
29
3
Thou art the sacrificer, Lord,the sacrifice also;
'Tis thou that dost sprinkle the Blood,
and all things else dost do.
4
Lift up ye Saints, (exalt on high)your great Redeemer, then
He shall have the preheminence;
ye Saints say all, Amen.
5
Sinners, will you praise Christ's great Name,to whom all praise belongs,
And celebrate his glorious Fame
with joy in holy Songs?
6
Of this Salvation then take hold,and of it get a part;
Then shall ye sing, and not till then,
with Grace in your own Heart.
