329. God's Sovereign Grace to Us Has Given | C.M. |
|
|
| | |
|
| 1 | God's sovereign grace to us has given, | 1 Peter 2:11; Ephesians 2:6-7 |
| While pilgrims here below, |
| A share in all the joys of heaven, |
| And that blest heaven to know. |
|
| 2 | With thankful hearts we now can bid | Hebrews 11:25; Colossians 3:3 |
| Farewell to pleasure here! |
| With Christ in God our life is hid, |
| And all its springs are there. |
|
| 3 | 'Tis now concealed and lodged secure |
| In God's eternal Son, |
| And there, as He, it shall endure, |
| Though to the world unknown. |
|
| 4 | Then, Lord, remove whate'er divides | Colossians 3:1-2; Matthew 6:21 |
| Our longing souls from Thee; |
| 'Tis fit that where the Head resides, |
| The members' hearts should be. |
