9298. Attend, While God's Exalted Son

1 Attend, while God’s exalted Son
Doth His own glories show:
“Behold, I sit upon My throne,
Creating all things new.

2 “Nature and sin are passed away,
And the old Adam dies;
My hands a new foundation lay,
See the new world arise.

3 I’ll be a Sun of Righteousness
To the new heav’ns I make;
None but the newborn heirs of grace
My glories shall partake.

4 Mighty Redeemer! set me free
From my old state of sin;
O make my soul alive to Thee,
Create new powers within.

5 Renew mine eyes, and form mine ears,
And mold my heart afresh;
Give me new passions, joys, and fears,
And turn the stone to flesh.

6 Far from the regions of the dead,
From sin, and earth, and hell,
In the new world that grace has made,
I would for ever dwell.
