Things future, nor things that are now, nor all things below or above, can make him his purpose forgo, or sever my soul from his love. 3 My name from the palms of his hands eternity will not erase; impressed on his heart it remains, in marks of indelible grace. Yes, I to the end shall endure, as sure as the earnest is giv'n; more happy, but not more secure, the glorified spirits in heav'n.
