HYMN 73. Hell in a Rage: Sung at the Administration of Baptism.

1

Lift up your voice, sing and rejoyce,
where are your melting tears;
Do Sinners turn, and to Christ run,
this fills Satan with Fears;

2

This makes Hell sad, and Heaven glad,
the Cherubs claps their wings;
There's joy above to see what Love
is in the King of Kings.

3

To such as we that Chosen be,
and called by his Grace;
Who Nat'rally in filth did ly,
condemn'd with Adam's Race,

77

4

But now made near and sav'd from fear,
being rais'd up on high;
Wash'd in Christ's Blood, enjoying Good;
sing Praise continually.

5

Lord let these know, and away go
assured of thy Love:
And live each Day that all may say,
they Born are from above:

6

That we may see continually,
cause to rejoyce in them,
Who being Sincere, may each appear
with Christ, Amen, Amen.
