Praise the Lord, who firmly joined us

Praise the Lord

who firmly joined us

Unto the Anointed One.

Thus we all have been anointed

With th’ anointing of the Son.

Now in Christ

in the anointing

We are the anointed ones.

Oh

how blessed is this ointment

Poured upon the many sons!

Hallelujah

the anointing

Unto us God’s essence brings;

It is now abiding in us

And it teaches us all things.

We’re the Lord’s peculiar treasure

Purchased by His precious blood.

He has put His seal upon us

We are those marked out by God.

Day by day we’re under sealing

That we may His likeness share.

By the impress of His Person

We will Jesus’ image bear.

Now we have the pledge

the foretaste

Of the Christ we soon will see.

We are longing for the full taste—

God

our feast eternally.

God has wrought us for this purpose

Giving us the earnest here

Guarantee of full enjoyment

Of our Lord Himself

so dear.

The anointing

seal

and earnest—

In our spirit are all three.

Such a wondrous

blest deposit

God has given you and me.
