my beauty are, my glorious dress;
'midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
with joy shall I lift up my head.

for who aught to my charge shall lay?
Fully absolved through these I am
from sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
3 Jesus, be endless praise to thee,
whose boundless mercy hath for me–
for me a full atonement made,
an everlasting ransom paid.
4 O let the dead now hear thy voice;
now bid thy banished ones rejoice;
their beauty this, their glorious dress,
Jesus, thy blood and righteousness.

Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness
With songs and honors sounding loud
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 279 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 97 Lyrics: 1 With songs and honors sounding loud,
Address the Lord on high;
Over the heavens he spreads his cloud,
And waters veil the sky.
2 He sends his showers of blessings down,
To cheer the plains below;
He makes the grass the mountains crown,
And corn in valleys grow.
3 His steady counsels change the face
Of the declining year;
He bids the sun cut short his race,
And wintry days appear.
4 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow,
Descend and clothe the ground;
The liquid streams forbear to flow,
In icy fetters bound.
5 He sends his word and melts the snow,
The fields no longer mourn;
He calls the warmer gales to blow,
And bids the spring return.
6 When from his dreadful stores on high
He pours the sounding hail,
The wretch that dares his God defy,
Shall find his courage fail.
7 The changing wind, the flying cloud,
Obey his mighty word:
With songs and honors sounding loud,
Praise ye the sovereign Lord. Topics: Attributes of God Providence; In the Seasons

thy wonderful design;
what meant the suffering Son of Man?
the streaming blood divine?

and my Redeemer know?

the heights and depths of grace,
those wounds which all my sorrows heal,
that dear disfigured face.

whom angels dimly see,
and gaze, transported at the sight,
