Took our nature and our place,
Lived and died to save our race.

4 Sing we too the Spirit's love ;-
With our stubborn hearts he strove,
Chased the mists of sins away,
Turned our night to glorious day.

5 Great the joy, the union sweet,
When the saints in glory meet!
Where the theme is still the same ;
Where they praise Jehovah's name.

Touch our lips, and loose our tongue;
Then our joyful souls shall bless
Thee, the Lord, our righteousness.

3 While to thee our prayers ascend,
Let thine ear in love attend;

Hear us, for thy Spirit pleads;
Hear, for Jesus intercedes.

mp 4 While thy word is heard with awe,
And we tremble at thy law,
Let the gospel's wondrous love
Every doubt and fear remove.
5 While thy ministers proclaim
Peace and pardon through thy name,
In their voices, let us own
Jesus, speaking from the throne.

6 From thy house when we return,
Let our hearts within us burn;
That, at evening, we may say, —
"We have walked with God to-day."
