In earthly courts there is a seal
That proves a record true;
And with this stamp the nation’s power
Is reckoned unto you.
In heaven, too, there is a seal,
A mark of love, so free
That God says, “When I see the blood
I will pass over thee.”
Hast thou this seal upon thy brow?
Then heaven is thine own;
For Jesus’ blood now speaks for thee
Before the Father’s throne.
And all the promises in Him
Are “Yea” and are “Amen;”
Sealed with that love-seal of His blood,
Deep stamped with Calv’ry’s stain.
