[Thou Saviour by Thy sacred bands]
Now Annas had sent Him bound unto, &c.
—xviii. 24.
Thou Saviour by Thy sacred bands
Didst expiate man's audaciousness,
Who rashly dared extend his hands
The interdicted fruit to seize:
Thy hands are tied to loosen ours,
The instruments of sin set free,
Redeem our captivated powers,
And give us hearts to die for Thee.
Didst expiate man's audaciousness,
Who rashly dared extend his hands
The interdicted fruit to seize:
73
The instruments of sin set free,
Redeem our captivated powers,
And give us hearts to die for Thee.
Those voluntary bonds of Thine
Break all the bonds my will has made,
And fill with confidence Divine
My soul on my Redeemer stay'd:
In perfect liberty from sin
I serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
When Thou hast made me free within,
Free to obey, and praise, and love.
Break all the bonds my will has made,
And fill with confidence Divine
My soul on my Redeemer stay'd:
In perfect liberty from sin
I serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
When Thou hast made me free within,
Free to obey, and praise, and love.
