Ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost: and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. (1 Thess. 1:6,10) |
Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that He will yet deliver us. (2 Cor. 1:10) |
Quickened, raised, and in Him seated, We a full deliverance know; Every foe has been defeated, Every enemy laid low. |
Soon, O Lord, in brightest glory, All its vastness we’ll explore; While we wait Thy promised coming, We will worship and adore. |
