Author: Benj. Beddome Hymnal: Christ in Song #371 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: God, in the gospel of His Son Lyrics: 1 God, in the gospel of His Son,
Makes His eternal counsels known;
Where love in all its glory shines,
And truth is drawn in fairest lines.
2 Here sinners, of an humble frame,
May taste His grace, and learn His name;
May read in characters of blood,
The wisdom, pow'r and grace of God.
3 The pris'ner here may break his chains,
The weary rest from all his pains,
The captive feel his bondage cease,
The mourner find the way of peace.
4 Oh, grant us grace, Almighty Lord,
To read aright Thy holy word,
Its truth with meekness to receive,
And by its holy precepts live.
