[First His own peculiar race]

He sent forth his servants to call them that, &c. —xxii. 3.

First His own peculiar race
The Father sent to' invite,
Woo'd them Jesus to embrace,
And in His love delight:
Moses show'd the Bridegroom near,
The prophets all confirm'd the word:
Israel heard, yet would not hear,
Or turn to meet their Lord.
