Christians the Sons of God

Author: Dr. S. Stennett Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #XCV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns First Line: Not all the nobles of the earth Lyrics: 1 Not all the nobles of the earth, Who boast the honors of their birth, Such real dignity can claim, As those who bear the christian name. 2 To them the privilege is giv'n To be the sons and heirs of heav'n; Sons of the God who reigns on high, And heirs of joys beyond the sky. 3 [On them, a happy chosen race, Their father pours his riches grace: To them his counsels he imparts, And stamps his image on their hearts. 4 Their infant-cries, their tender age, His pity and his love engage: He clasps them in his arms, and there Secures them with parental care.] 5 His will he makes them early know, And teaches their young feet to go; Whispers instruction to their minds, And on their hearts his precepts binds. 6 When, thro' temptation they rebel, His chast'ning rode ne makes them feel Then, with a father's tender heart, He sooths the pain, and heals the smart. 7 Their daily wants his hands supply, Their steps he guards with watchful eye, Leads them from earth to heaven above, And crowns them with eternal love. 8 If I've the honor, Lord, to be One of this num'rous family, On me the gracious gift bestow, To call thee Abba, father! too. 9 So may my conduct ever prove My filial piety and love! Whilst all my brethren clearly trace Their father's likeness in my face. Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Adoption Scripture: John 1:12 Languages: English
