“He hath done this!” Oh, words of wonder!
Still would my soul their meaning ponder,
Ere in the land of glory yonder
I see Him face to face.
“He hath done this,” by whose creation
Was laid of old the earth’s foundation:
Jesus! ‘tis He who wrought salvation
In boundless love and grace.
“He hath done this,” —that work’s perfection,
(All unto God in full subjection),
Attested by His resurrection,
Hath purchased all our bliss.
“He hath done this,” with faith’s deep yearning;
More, more of “this” we would be learning,
While evermore our praise returning
To Him who “hath done this.”
