HYMN 53

L. M.

The Holy Scriptures. Heb. 1:1,2; 2 Tim. 3:15,16; Psa. 147:19,20.

335

God, who in various methods told

His mind and will to saints of old,

Sent down his Son, with truth and grace,

To teach us in these latter days.

Our nation reads the written word,

That book of life, that sure record:

The bright inheritance of heav'n

Is by the sweet conveyance giv'n.

God's kindest thoughts are here expressed,

Able to make us wise and bless'd;

The doctrines are divinely true,

Fit for reproof and comfort too.

Ye British isles, who read his love

In long epistles from above,

(He hath not sent his sacred word

To every land,) praise ye the Lord.
