Mine eyes with joy and wonder see What forms of love He bears for me. 3 Arrayed in mortal flesh, The Covenant-Angel stands, And holds the promises And pardons in his hands: Commissioned from his Father's throne To make His grace to mortals known. 4 Great Prophet of my God, My tongue would bless thy name: By thee the joyful news Of our salvation came,– The joyful news of sins forgiven, Of hell subdued, and peace with Heaven.
