[God over all, for ever bless'd]

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law. —iii. 13.

God over all, for ever bless'd,
A curse and sin for sinners made,
By a whole world of guilt oppress'd,
Who hast the general ransom paid,
Redeem'd us from the curse of God,
And bought the grace with all Thy blood;
The gift unspeakable procured
For Adam's race on us bestow,
Who long, by grace Divine assured,
Redemption in Thy blood to know,
And taste our purchased liberty,
From curse, and sin for ever free.
The promise sure to Abraham made,
For every ransom'd soul design'd,
Be it into our souls convey'd;
The blessing bought for all mankind
O might we now through faith receive,
And happy in Thy Spirit live!
The gift, the blessing, and the grace,
The precious promises in one,
Jesus, our faithful hearts embrace,
Comprised, fulfill'd in Thee alone,

64

Fulness of Deity we prove,
And all the heights and depths of love.
