Of all the creatures God has made

Author: Hart Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:10 Lyrics: 1 Of all the creatures God has made, There is but man alone That stands in need to be arrayed In coverings not his own. 2 [By nature, bears, and bulls, and swine, With fowls of every wing, Are much more warm, more safe, more fine, Than man, their fallen king.] 3 Naked and weak, we want a screen; But when with clothes we’re decked, Not only lies our shame unseen, But we command respect. 4 [Can sinful souls, then, stand unclad, Before God’s burning throne, All bare, or, what is quite as bad, In coverings of their own? 5 Rich garments must be worn to grace The marriage of the Lamb; Not nasty rags to foul the place, Nor nakedness to shame.] 6 Robes of imputed righteousness Will gain us God’s esteem; No naked pride, no fig-leaf dress, How fair soe’er it seem. 7 [’Tis called a robe, perhaps to mean Man has by nature none; It grows not native, like our skin, But is by faith put on.] 8 A sinner clothed in this rich vest, And garments washed in blood, Is rendered fit with Christ to feast, And be the guest of God.

The Bride of Christ

Author: Clara M. Brooks Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:10 First Line: O church of God, thou spotless bride Lyrics: 1 O church of God, thou spotless bride, On Jesus breast secure; No stains of sin in thee abide, Thy garments all are pure. Of unity and holiness Thy gentle voice doth sing; Of purity and lowliness Thy songs in triumph ring. 2 Thou lovely virgin, thou art fair, Thy mothers only child; Thy heav’nly music let me hear, Thy voice is sweet and mild. Thy cheeks adorned with jewels bright, Thy neck with chains of gold; Unfurl thy banners in thy might, Thy graces rich unfold. 3 She stood attired in spotless dress The early morning through, And then into the wilderness On eagle’s wings she flew. And nourished there from heav’nly clime, She lived for many years; Now, in this blessed evening time Her glory reappears. 4 She leans upon an Arm of love No sin her garments taints; They’re made of linen wov’n above— The righteousness of saints. The marriage of the Lamb is come, His bride all ready stands; The Bridegroom soon will take her home To dwell in heav’nly lands.
