HYMN 97. (L. M.) The same.
[From heaven the sinning angels fell]
I
From heaven the sinning angels fell,And wrath and darkness chain'd them down;
But man, vile man, forsook his bliss,
And mercy lifts him to a crown.
II
Amazing work of sovereign graceThat could distinguish rebels so!
Our guilty treasons call'd aloud
For everlasting fetters too.
III
To thee, to thee, almighty love,Our souls, ourselves, our all we pay:
Millions of tongues shall sound thy praise
On the bright hills of heavenly day.
