Justice and equity

Author: Dr. Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 36 hymnals Topics: The Graces of the Holy Spirit Justice; Duty to God And our neighbor; Justice and equity to our neighbour First Line: Blessed redeemer how divine Lyrics: 1 Blessed redeemer how divine, How righteous is this rule of thine, "Never to deal with others worse "Than we would have them deal with us!" 2 This golden lesson, short and plain, Gives nor the mind nor memory pain: And every conscience must approve This universal law of love. 3 'Tis written in each mortal breast, Where all our tenderest wishes rest: We draw it from our inmost veins, Where love to self resides and reigns. 4 Is reason ever at a loss? Call in self-love to judge the cause: Let our own fondest passions shew How we should treat our neighbor too. 5 How bless'd would every nation prove, Thus rul'd by equity and love! All would be friends without a foe, And form a paradise below. 6 Jesus, forgive us, that we keep Thy sacred law of love asleep; And take our envy, wrath, and pride, Those savage passions, for our guide. Scripture: Matthew 7:12 Text Sources: Dr. Watts's Sermons

Who has survey'd the sacred roll, And found my name not written there? 3 Presumptuous thought! to fix the bound, To limit mercy's sovereign reign: What other happy souls have found, I'll seek, nor shall I seek in vain. 4 I own my guilt, my sins confess; Can men or devils make them more? Of Crimes already numberless, Vain the attempt to swell the score. 5 Were the black list before my sight, While I remember thou hast dy'd, 'Twould only urge my speedier flight, To seek salvation at thy side. 6 Low at thy feet I'll cast me down, To thee reveal my guilt and fear; And—if thou spurn me from thy throne— I'll be the first who perish'd there.
