Adoption

Author: Cruttenden Appears in 35 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Adoption First Line: Let others boast their ancient line Lyrics: 1 Let others boast their ancient line In long succession great; In the proud list let heroes shine, And monarchs swell the state; Descended from the King of Kings, Each saint a nobler title sings. 2 Pronounce me, gracious God, thy son, Own me an heir divine; I'll pity princes on the throne, When I can call thee mine; Scepters and crowns unenvied rise, And lose their lustre in mine eyes. 3 Content, obscure I pass my days, To all I meet unknown, And wait till thou thy child shalt raise, And seat menear thy throne. No name, no honors here I crave, Well pleas'd with those beyond the grave. 4 Jesus, my elder brother, lives, With him I too shall reign; Nor sin, nor death, while he survives, Shall make the promise vain. In him my title stands secure, And shall, while endless years endure. 5 When he, in robes divinely bright, Shall once again appear, Thou, too my soul, shalt shine in light, And his full image bear. Enough!—I wait th' appointed day, Bless'd Savior, haste, and come away! Scripture: 1 John 3:1-3

How wise and holy Thy commands! Thy promises, how firm they be! How firm our hope and comfort stands! 4 Should all the forms that men devise Assault my faith with treacherous art, I'd call them vanity and lies, And bind Thy Gospel to my heart.
