7s.

Jesus, spotless Lamb of God,
 
Thou hast bought us with Thy blood;
 
We are Thine, and Thine alone;
 
This we gladly, fully own.
“But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” (1 Peter 1:19)
“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers.” (1 Peter 1:18)
“And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.” (1 Corinthians 3:23)
2
Help us to confess Thy name,
 
Bear with joy Thy cross and shame;
 
Only seek to follow Thee,
 
Though reproach our portion be.
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9-10)
“But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” (Galatians 6:14)
“If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.” (1 Peter 4:14)

When we are to glory come,
 
And have reached our heavenly home,
 
Louder then each lip shall own,
 
We are Thine, and Thine alone.
“When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” (Colossians 3:4)
“But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.” (Hebrews 11:16)
“For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.” (Hebrews 13:14)
