[Yet till Thy sovereign grace permit]
Having...obtained help of God, I continue, &c.
—xxvi. 22.
Yet till Thy sovereign grace permit
They cannot touch one sacred hair:
And hence, my Lord, I labour yet
Escaped, unhurt, from every snare;
Rescued by military bands
Or whomsoe'er Thy love employs,
I rest in Thy almighty hands,
And underneath Thy wings rejoice.
They cannot touch one sacred hair:
And hence, my Lord, I labour yet
Escaped, unhurt, from every snare;
Rescued by military bands
Or whomsoe'er Thy love employs,
I rest in Thy almighty hands,
And underneath Thy wings rejoice.
Thy servant here I still remain,
And testify to great and small
Whate'er Thine oracles contain;
The sum, the end, the truth of all,
Thee, Jesus, Thee I love to show,
Who hast the prophecies fulfill'd;
And in Thy blood we all may know
The promises for ever seal'd.
And testify to great and small
Whate'er Thine oracles contain;
The sum, the end, the truth of all,
430
Who hast the prophecies fulfill'd;
And in Thy blood we all may know
The promises for ever seal'd.
