CCLXII. Blessings of the Gospel

1 O JESUS our LORD,
Thy name be ador'd,
For all the rich blessings convey'd by thy word.

2 In spirit we trace
Thy wonders of grace,
And chearfully join in a concert of praise.

3 The ancient of days
His glory displays,
And shines on his chosen with qucik'ning rays.

4 The trumpet of GOD
Is sounding aloud
The language of mercy — salvation thro' blood.

5 Thrice happy are they
That hear and obey,
And share in the blessings of this gospel day.

6 The people who know
Their Saviour below,
With burning affection to worship him glow.

7 This blessing be mine,
Thro' favour divine;
But O, my Redeemer, the glory be thine.
