[Shall we glory in our grace?]
He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
—i. 31.
Shall we glory in our grace?
(Our grace is not our own)
Deck'd with a few borrow'd rays
From the eternal Sun.
Shall we of our lustre boast?
Or dazzled by the brighter light,
Sink o'erwhelm'd, eclipsed, or lost
In our Redeemer's sight?
(Our grace is not our own)
Deck'd with a few borrow'd rays
From the eternal Sun.
Shall we of our lustre boast?
Or dazzled by the brighter light,
Sink o'erwhelm'd, eclipsed, or lost
In our Redeemer's sight?
24
Will the chief of saints declare
“The chief of saints am I!”
Perfect, his perfection dare
In words to testify?
Suffer worms to count him good?
Or humbled into nothing own,
He who wash'd me in His blood,
My God, is good alone.
“The chief of saints am I!”
Perfect, his perfection dare
In words to testify?
Suffer worms to count him good?
Or humbled into nothing own,
He who wash'd me in His blood,
My God, is good alone.
Are we justified by grace,
And to His mind restored?
Sinners still, we only praise,
And glory in the Lord,
Christ our whole perfection call,
No excellence but Christ we see,
Christ alone is all in all
Through all eternity.
And to His mind restored?
Sinners still, we only praise,
And glory in the Lord,
Christ our whole perfection call,
No excellence but Christ we see,
Christ alone is all in all
Through all eternity.
