HYMN 34 PART 2
C. M.
None excluded from hope. Rom. 1:16; 1 Cor. 1:24.
317 Jesus, thy blessings are not few, Nor is thy gospel weak; Thy grace can melt the stubborn Jew, And bow th' aspiring Greek. | Wide as the reach of Satan's rage Doth thy salvation flow; 'Tis not confined to sex or age, The lofty or the low. | While grace is offered to the prince, The poor may take their share; No mortal has a just pretence To perish in despair | Be wise, ye men of strength and wit, Nor boast your native powers; But to his sovereign grace submit, And glory shall be yours. | Come, all ye vilest sinners, come, He'll form your souls anew; His gospel and his heart have room For rebels such as you. | His doctrine is almighty love; There's virtue in his name To turn the raven to a dove, The lion to a lamb. | |
