Blest be my God that I was born

Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 Blest be my God that I was born To hear the Gospel sound; That I was born to be baptiz'd, And bred on holy Ground: 2 That I was bred where God appears With Tokens of his Grace; The Lines are fallen unto me In a most pleasant Place. 3 I might have been a Pagan bred, Or else a veiled Jew, Or cheated with the Al Koran Amongst the Turkish Crew. 4 So in a Dungeon dark as Night I might have spent my Days; But thou hast sent me Gospel-Light, To thine eternal Praise. 5 The Sun that rose up in the East, And drove the Shades away, Its healing Wings have reach'd the West, And turn'd the Night to Day. 6 Blest be my God for what I see, My God for what I hear, I hear such blessed News from Heav'n Not Earth nor Hell I fear. 7 I hear my Lord for me was born, My Lord for me did die, My Lord for me did rise again, And did ascend on High: 8 On High he stands to plead my Cause, And will return again, And set me on a glorious Throne, And I with him shall reign.
