Invited to re­cline,
Truth, wis­dom, ma­jes­ty, and grace,
The man­sions of the dead,
The ground is curs­èd for thy sake;
Inflame with per­fect love each sense,
A sure re­treat, a strong de­fense,
I know that while in heav'n He stands
The ho­ly to the ho­li­est leads,
Thou right­eous Branch,
Of Sa­tan and of sin.
To Heav’n we raise our sup­pli­ant eyes,
And let my heart with joy con­fess
And all Thy sta­tutes just;
’Midst sands and rocks, your shep­herd’s voice,
Leave Thy foot­stool, take Thy throne:
For gar­ners in the sky.
The soul is washed in Je­sus’ blood.
And is Thy Word, oh God, a fire?
Their youth­ful hearts are prone;
Most glo­ri­ous—there Thy grace dis­play;

Thence

Rich stores of truth di­vine.
Thy wealth the pow’r of thought trans­cends,
In glo­ri­ous tri­umph led;
Become the dust thou wert be­fore.
O Fa­ther, that we ask be done,
You He’ll in per­fect safe­ty keep,
No tongue can bid me thence depart
And he that in Thy sta­tutes treads
To give the na­tions fruit.
And with a sov­er­eign voice,
Saints for a time may be op­pressed,
For this, O may I free­ly count
With ev­ery flat­ter­ing lust.
Your Fa­ther will a king­dom give,
Be the king­dom all Thine own.
The day of God is come,
Ecstatic rap­tures fill the mind;
The ho­ly flame by it pro­duced
To seek a heav’n­ly goal.
When Heav­en and earth have passed away.
