[Made capable through Jesus' word]
They were beyond measure astonished, saying, &c.
—vii. 37.
Made capable through Jesus' word
The quickening voice of God to hear,
To praise Him by all heaven adored,
His person and His character
We testify in Christ express'd,
And bear His image in our breast.

Jesus the Patron of mankind
With fix'd astonishment we praise,
The end of all His wonders find,
His works are miracles of grace,
His power in acts of mercy show'd
Only intends His creature's good.

The deaf, we to His voice attend,
“Be saved; be perfected; come up!”
The dumb in rapturous hymns ascend,
And shouting gain the mountain top,
In songs of pure seraphic joy
A bless'd eternity to' employ.
