True God and man, in person one;
A judge to pass our final doom.
4 From day to day, O Lord, do we
On high exalt and honour thee:
Thy name we worship and adore,
World without end, for evermore.

HYMN 13. Second Part. L. M.

God the Son equal with the Father. RIGHT King of glory, dreadful God! Our spirits bow before thy feet; To thee we lift an humble thought, And worship at thine awful seat. 2 A thousand seraphs, strong and bright, Stand round the glorious Deity; But who, among the sons of light, Pretends comparison with thee? 3 Yet there is one of human frame, Jesus, array'd in flesh and blood, Thinks it no robbery, to claim A full equality with God.

4 Their glory shines with equal beams; Their essence is for ever one; Distinct in persons, and in names;

The Father God, and God the Son. 5 Then let the name of Christ our King With equal honours be ador'd;

1

His praise let ev'ry angel sing,

And all the nations own the Lord.

HYMN 13.

Third Part. L. M.

Adoption.

ESUS, we bless thy Father's name;
Thy God and ours are both the same;

2

What heav'nly blessings from his throne Flow down to sinners thro' his Son!

“ Christ is my first elect," he said,

Then chose our souls in Christ our head; Before he gave the mountains birth, Or laid foundations for the earth. 3 Thus did eternal love begin To raise us up from death and sin; Persons and characters decreed, Blameless in love, a holy seed.

4 Predestinated to be sons;

Born by degrees, but chose at once:
A new regenerated race,

To praise the glory of his grace.

5 With Christ our Lord, we share our part In the affections of his heart;

Nor shall our souls be thence remov'd
Till he forgets his first belov❜d.

HYMN 13. Fourth Part. S. M.
We are sons of God by adoption.
EHOLD what wondrous grace,
The Father has bestow'd

B

On sinners of a mortal race

To call them sons of God!

2 'Tis no surprising thing,

That we should be unknown;
The Jewish world knew not their King,
God's everlasting Son.

3 Nor doth it yet appear

How great we must be made;

But when we see our Saviour there,
We shall be like our head.

4 A hope so much divine

May trials well endure;

May purge our souls from sense and sin,
As Christ the Lord is pure.
5 If in my Father's love,

I share a filial part,

Send down thy Spirit, like a dove,
To rest upon my heart.

6 We would no longer lie,

Like slaves, beneath the throne; Our faith shall Abba, Father, cry, And thou the kindred own.

Jesus is our Lord and Master.

(OME, ye that love the Saviour's name,
And joy to make it known,

The Sov'reign of your hearts proclaim,
And bow before his throne.

2 Behold your Lord, your Master crown'd
With glories all divine!

And tell the wond'ring nations round,
How bright those glories shine.

3 Infinite pow'r, and boundless grace,
In him unite their rays:

You, that have e'er beheld his face,
Can you forbear his praise?

4 When in his earthly courts we view
The glories of our King;
We long to love, as angels do,
And wish, like them, to sing.

5 And shall we long and wish in vain?
Lord, teach our songs to rise:

Thy love can animate the strain,
And bid it reach the skies.

6 O happy period! glorious day!

When heav'n and earth shall raise, With all their pow'rs, th' enraptur'd lay, To celebrate thy praise.

HYMN 14. First Part.

P. M.

The eternal Son of God took upon him the very nature

1

of man.

OD with us! O glorious name!

Go

Let it shine in endless fame:
God and man in Christ unite;
O mysterious depth and height!
2 God with us! th' eternal Son

Took our soul, our flesh, and bone:
Now, ye saints, his grace admire,
Swell the song with holy fire.
3 God with us! but tainted not
With the first transgressor's blot;
Yet did he our sins sustain,

Bear the guilt, the curse, the pain.
4 God with us! O wondrous grace!
Let us see him face to face:
That we may Immanuel sing,
As we ought, our God and King.

HYMN 14. Second Part.

The birth of Christ.

L. M.

O us a child is born from heav'n;
To us the Son of God is giv'n;
Gentiles in Jesus' name shall trust,
And of his glories make their boast:
2 His name the Wonderful shall be;
His wonders heav'n and earth shall see:

The Counsellor of truth and grace, Who leads in paths of righteousness. 3 The mighty God, that glorious name, His works and word join to proclaim: The Everlasting Father, He

And the whole church his family. 4 The Prince of Peace, on David's throne: And nations, yet unborn, shall own His sov'reign and his gracious sway; Glad of the honour to obey.

5 Justice and Judgment he'll maintain→ To everlasting ages reign;

And his blest empire shall increase, Till time, with all its movements, cease. 6 Our faith in grateful triumph boasts. These wonders of the Lord of Hosts: And trusts the love, that form'd the plan, To perfect what that love began.

HYMN 14. Third Part. S. M.
The incarnation.

YE

E saints, proclaim abroad
The honours of your King;
To Jesus, your incarnate God,
Your songs of praises sing.

2 Not angels, round the throne
Of majesty above,

`Are half so much oblig'd as we,
To our Immanuel's love.

3 They never sunk so low,

They are not rais'd so high;

They never knew such depths of woe,
Such heights of majesty.
