The Lord, the great I AM, by earth and heaven confessed we bow before his holy name forever blest. 2 He by his name has sworn, on this we shall depend, and as on eagles' wings upborne to heaven ascend. There we shall see his face, his power we shall adore and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore. 3 The goodly land I see, with peace and plenty blest, a land of sacred liberty and endless rest. There milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound; the tree of life forever grows with mercy crowned. 4 There rules the Lord our King, the Lord our Righteousness, victorious over death and sin, the Prince of Peace. On Zion's sacred height his kingdom he maintains, and glorious with his saints in light forever reigns. 5 Triumphant hosts on high give thanks to God and sing, and "Holy, holy, holy" cry, "Almighty King!" Hail, Abraham's God and ours! One mighty hymn we raise. All power and majesty be yours and endless praise!

Imputed Righteousness

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 499 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 23:6 First Line: Jesus, thy blood and righteousness Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy blood and righteousness My beauty are, my glorious dress; Midst flaming worlds, in these array'd, With Joy shall I lift up my head. 2 When from the dust of death I rise To take my mansion in the skies, E'en then shall this be all my plea "Jesus hath liv'd and dy'd for me." 3 Bold shall I stand in thy great day, For who aught to my charge shall lay? While thro' thy blood absolv'd I am, From sins' tremendous curse and shame. 4 Thus Abraham the friend of God, Thus all the armies bought with blood, Savior of sinners thee proclaim, Sinners, of whom the chief I am. 5 This spotless robe the same appears When ruin'd nature sinks in years: No age can change its glorious hue, The robe of Christ is ever new. 6 O! let the dead now hear thy voice, Bid, Lord, thy banish'd ones rejoice, Their beauty this, their glorious dress, Jesus, the Lord our righteousness.
