[When Thou hast disposed a heart]

Then Philip opened his mouth, and began, &c. —viii. 35.

When Thou hast disposed a heart
Saving truth with joy to hear,
Utterance, Lord, Thou dost impart
To Thy chosen messenger,
Then he finds the Scripture key,
Then he speaks, and preaches Thee.
Jesus, in the sacred book
Thou art everywhere conceal'd:
There for Thee alone we look,
By Thy Spirit's light reveal'd,
Thee set forth before our eyes
Faith in every page descries.
Thee we preach to sinful men,
Urging them their Lord to' embrace,
Pardon in Thy blood to gain,
Hope for all the promised grace,
Glad in all Thy footsteps move,
Grasp the crown of heavenly love.
Thou the Saviour of mankind,
Thou the whole Salvation art;
All summ'd up in Thee I find,
All contain'd within my heart;

230

None but Christ on earth I know,
None but Christ to others show.
O that all mankind were fill'd
With the knowledge of the Lamb,
Conscious all of God reveal'd,
All baptized into His name,
Every soul with love o'erflow'd,
Wash'd and saved through Jesu's blood.
