Praise for Salvation

Author: John Relly Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #V (1792) Meter: Irregular Topics: Creation, Providence, Redemption and Salvation, celebrated in Songs of Praise First Line: Come ye lovers of the Lamb Lyrics: 1 Come ye Lovers of the Lamb, Praise the great almighty name; To your God your songs begin, To the Lamb your bleeding King. 2 Jesus, thee we honours give; Live Almighty Jesus, live; Thou hast penn'd our songs with blood, Thee we hail, incarnate God. 3 We were laden once with sin, But the Lamb hath made us clean; We, who once in darkness lay, Now behold eternal day. 4 Strangers once and far from God, Now brought home by Jesu's blood, Shining in our wedding dress, In the Lord, our righteousness. 5 Poor, and low, we once did lie, Full of wants, and sore oppress'd; Jesus now hat rais'd us high, All our Grievances redress'd. 6 Deeply sinking once in hell, Without hope, and without God; Now our tongues can greatly tell, We are sav'd by Jesu's blood. 7 Freely we are sav'd by grace, Heart and Hand we this embrace; This below, fills ev'ry tongue This above, is all the song. 8 Praises still to Christ we sing, Christ our Prophet, Priest, and King; Living waters in us flow, Glory is begun below.

Why bless'd with liberty and light? Nor by fell tyranny enslav'd, Nor lost in superstition's night? 6 Not for our sake, we conscious own; A wretched, vile, ungrateful race: 'Tis done to make thy glory known; To show the wonders of thy grace. 7 The wonders of thy grace complete; Reform this wretched guilty land! Let thankful love, beneath thy feet, Confess thy kind, thy guardian hand! 8 Let every age adore thy name, While nature's circling wheels shall roll! Thy mercies every tongue proclaim, And sound thy praise from pole to pole. Languages: English
