Now the gracious Mediator Risen to the courts of bliss, Claims for me, a sinful creature, Pardon, righteousness, and peace! 3 Sure such infinite affection Lays the highest claims to mine; All my powers, without exception, Should in fervent praises join. Jesus, fit me for thy service; Form me for thyself alone; I am thy most costly purchase,-- Take possession of thine own.
