This is the Word of Truth and Love

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CXXXVIII (1766) Publication Date: 1766 Lyrics: 1 This is the Word of Truth and Love, Sent to the Nations from above; Jehovah here resolves to shew What his Almighty Grace can do. 2 This Remedy did Wisdom find To heal Diseases of the Mind; This sov'reign Balm, whose Virtues can Restore the ruin'd Creature, Man. 3 The gospel bids the Dead revive, Sinners obey the Voice, and live; Dry Bones are rais'd, and cloathed afresh, And Hearts of Stone are turn'd to flesh. 4 Where Satan reign'd in Shades of Night, The Gospel strikes a heav'nly Light; Our Lusts its wond'rous Pow'r controuls, And calms the rage of angry Souls. 5 Lions and Beasts of savage Name, Put on the Nature of the Lamb; While the wild World esteem it strange, Gaze, and admire, and hate the Change. 6 May but this Grace my Soul renew, Let Sinners gaze and hate me too; The Word that saves me does engage A sure Defence from all their Rage.
