[God is not partial in His love]

God is no respecter of persons. —x. 34.

God is not partial in His love,
Nor e'er decreed a few to' approve
And all the rest pass by;
Whole nations unredeem'd to leave,
Who never can His grace receive,
But must for ever die.
The Lord to every soul is good,
For every soul He shed His blood,
That each might pardon find;
His, and the common Saviour praise,
The God of free, unbounded grace,
The Friend of all mankind.
