Sweet and abun­dant is this boast,
The God by all ob­eyed!
There’ll be a crown­ing on that day
O Son of Man, our he­ro strong and ten­der,
Every need­ful task ful­fill­ing,
And hum­ble is His birth.
Thou hast, O God, the work be­gun,
I con­se­crate to Thee.
Now to my tent, O God, re­pair,
At last, O Lord, let trou­ble cease,
Come, blest Re­deem­er!
The Lord Him­self will judge His saints;
My Sav­ior be.

Serv­ant

This is the Sav­ior’s com­mand­ment,
This is the Sav­ior’s com­mand­ment,
Each in his of­fice wait,
And save us, Je­su! lest we die.
Here I stand to do Thy will.
For I have au­tho­ri­ty; you have it, too.
Devoted to Thy fear;
My rights on earth I count as loss
To Thy won­drous might to­day!
’Twill be for those who toil and pray,
Our liv­ing sac­ri­fice to Thee we ren­der,
I am will­ing, I am will­ing,
And takes the serv­ant’s place;
The branch from Jes­se’s root:
Restore to Thee Thy own;
I’ll suf­fer no­thing near me there
Not in mine in­no­cence I trust;
Come in com­pas­sion,
And when He hears their sore com­plaints,
My trust is in Thy Word,
