[Adopted by the Father's grace]

Adopted by the Father's grace,
Incorporated with the Son,
Fill'd with the Spirit of holiness,
God One in Three, and Three in One,
Christians throughout their lives proclaim,
And bear the great Jehovah's name.
Partakers of His nature pure,
They all His words with joy receive,
His church, they labour and endure,
His saints, for God alone they live,

443

His host they see the glittering prize,
And fight their passage to the skies.
