Offices of Christ

Hymnal: PHSS1792 #CCXXXIII (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Sages of ancient letter'd times! Lyrics: 1 Sages of ancient letter'd times! In ev'ry age and diff'rent climes, For wisdom fam'd among mankind, Withdraw your thinly scatter'd rays; Before the broad o'er pow'ring blaze, Of the supreme eternal mind. 2 Mercy's great year, in heaven is roll'd, By seers succeeding aeers foretold, Was now with solemn pomp unseal'd, Light of the world, Messiah came, In his almighty Father's name, And immortality reveal'd. 3 Fill'd with his Father's strength, he taught; The dumb in rapture speak their thought, The lame man bounding like the roe: The blind looks up to heav'n, stern death Resigns his spoil; and from his breath Fierce demons shrink to shades below. 4 O works of pow'r, O works of love, Ehereal embassage to prove, That ev'ry rising doubt control; Earnest of love and pow'r more strong, Which to the son of God belong, To heal the mis'ries of the soul. 5 Great Prophet, Savior, worthy Thou That ev'ry knee in homage bow, From ev'ry mouth thy praise should flow; All thy commands are mild and just, Thy promise, faithful to our trust, Will pardon, peace, and heav'n bestow.

He did all our woes retrieve, He expir'd that we might live: By his stripes our wounds are heal'd, By his blood our peace is seal'd. 3 Jesus' pain procures our ease; Jesus' dear is our release; Jesus' cross obtains our crown; Jesus' sepulchre our throne. Lord, conform us to thy death; Bid our sins yield up their breath; By thy resurrection's pow'r, Make our souls to glory soar. 4 Circumcise our filthy hearts, Purify our inward parts; Lord, destroy the carnal mind, That in thee we peace may find; In thy righteousness array'd, Let us triumph and be glad; Let us walk with thee in white, 'Till we see thy face in light.
