121. Glory Unto Jesus Be

7s.
by A.J. Rutherford
1
Glory unto Jesus be!
 
From the curse who set us free;
 
All our guilt on Him was laid,
 
He the ransom fully paid.
2
All that blessèd work is done,
 
God’s well-pleasèd with His Son;
 
He has raised Him from the dead,
 
Set Him over all as Head.
“Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.” (1 Peter 1:21)
“And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.” (Colossians 2:10)
3
This we know, and cease to mourn,
 
Patient wait His sure return:
 
For His saints with Him shall reign — 
 
"Come, Lord Jesus, come! Amen!"
“And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” (2 Thessalonians 3:5)
“Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.” (Revelation 20:6)
“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” (Revelation 22:20)
