| Ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto Me above all people: for all the earth is Mine: and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests. (Ex. 19:5‑6) |
| Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9) |
One string there is of sweetest tone,
Reserved for sinners saved by grace;
’Tis sacred to one class alone,
And touched by one peculiar race. |
Though angels boast their heavenly King,
And Him their Lord adoring own,
We can with exultation sing,
“He wears our nature on the throne.” |
