[Lord, I believe, and stand secure]

He that believeth on Him is not condemned. —iii. 18.

Lord, I believe, and stand secure,
In all I speak, and do, and feel;

347

My conscience finds an answer sure,
To every charge of earth or hell:
Nigh to the Judge I boldly draw,
My Surety all His anger bore,
My Lord fulfill'd the fiery law,
And God the just can ask no more.
