1.JESU 1. JES Name,

ThyGod and ours are both the fame: What heav'nly bleffings from his throne

Flow down to finners thro' his Son!
2. Chrift be my firft Eleft, he faid,
Then chose our fouls in Chrift our
Head,

Before He gave the mountains birth,
Or laid foundations for the Earth.
3. Thus did eternal Love begin
To raife us up from death and fin;
Our Characters were then decreed,
Blameless in love, a holy Seed.
4 Predeftinated to be fons,
Born by degrees, but chofe at once;
A new regenerated Race,
To praise the glory of his Grace.

His Blood he freely spilt; And now his Righteoufnefs divine, Imputed to my faith is mine, Removing fin and guilt. 4. 'He kindly took our Flesh and blood,

Now without blush his Brotherhood,
His Stock and kindred owns ;
His God our God and Father is,
What glorious Privilege is this,
To his redeemed ones!

5. Acquainted he with deepest grief,

Our Sorrows bore, and as a thief
Hung on th'accurfed Tree;
In him the fairest Son of men,
Nor Form nor Comelinefs were feen:
O depth of mystery!

6. The Judge of all condemned was To death; to gain our woful Caufe,

The Prince of life was flain : The Lord delighted in his Death, And would have every foul by faith

Salvation to obtain.

7. The Son, tho' on the Godhead's throne,

Will ne'er difclaim his Flesh and bone,

But, like a tender Nurse,

10. Rejoice, ye heav'ns, and earth reply!

With praife, ye finners, fill the sky, All Grace his Death procures : Your woes with Bleffings are exchang'd,

You in his children's order rang'd, Eternal Life is yours.

With Mercy melts His Mind; When Rods are seen in Moses hands,

The Saviour's Heart is kind. 2. The Lord first empties whom he fills,

He quickens when the Letter kills,

Cafts down whom he would raise ;

Exalting thus his praise.

3. All fears and terrors, when he fmiles,

At once muft disappear; The fore and wounded Bride he heals,

And feeds with heav'nly Chear. 4.When he applies his healing Blood Unto a fin-fick foul;

And fhow'r his mercies from above;

For he's the living Source.

8. His Promises he cannot break, Never a helpless foul forfake,

For life and blood he pawn'd; Tho' Storms and waves with fury beat,

Yea, ev'n in fi'ry tryals heat,

The Rocks unfhaken ftand. 9.Jehovah's Strength with me abides, While Chrift himself in me refides, Immanuel, God with us : Let Satan roar, let hell affail, The Bridegroom's Heart can never fail,

The ferpent's head he'll bruise.

Ne'er fails to make her whole.

5. Salvation from his pierced Heart
Gufh'd out like pent up fire:
Freely he will to each impart,
Nor Money will require.

6. No worth we have, nor pow'r, nor good,

His Favour to procure;
The richeft Store's his precious Blood,
From Indigence fecure.

7. He freely laid his Majefty
His every glory by ;
That Bankrupts thro' his Poverty
He richly might supply.

8. Immanuel for finners flain,
Includes fuch stores of Grace ;

As narrow hearts can ne'er contain,

Nor angels tongues expres.

Of peace, of life and light;
To all that helpless Sinners need,
He gives thy foul a Right.

10. Tho' heav'ns his throne, he came from thence

To feek and fave the loft; Whatever be the vast Expence, The Bridegroom's at the coft. 11. Pleas'd to expend each drop of blood

That fill'd his facred Veins, Freely the conq'ring Victim ftood; He fear'd nor fpar'd no pains. 12. His Coft immenfe was in thy place,

Thy freedom coft his Thrall; Thy glory coft him deep Difgrace: Rejoice, he paid for all.

When in thy Name we truft! Our Faith receives a righteousness That makes the finner just.

3. When Law condemns, and Juftice cries

For dreadful vengeance without end:
To Jefus then I turn my eyes,
He tells me, he will ftand my Friend.

4.

God on these terms is reconcil'd, And I his gracious Heart have won ; In Chrift I am his fav'rite child, My Brother is his only Son.

5. What can be laid unto my charge, When God faith, freely I'll forgive ? Tho' Hell fhould on my crimes en. large,

Chrift fays I fhall not die but live. 6. No Terms he left me to fulfill, Nothing to put a stop to Faith; Sin's bond was cancel'd, his laft Will Was feal'd, when he refign'd his Breath.

7. Away then, doubts, and all my fears!

Be filent all my needlefs fighs;
