HYMN 183.
Zach. 12.10. And they shall look upon me whom they have pierced.
1 O Happy Souls who look to thee, And presently do mourn And grieve for their iniquity, Seeing what thou hast born.
2 O Lord, how did our horrid sin Upon thee heavy lye! We pierced thee once and again By our iniquity.
2 O Lord, how did our horrid sin Upon thee heavy lye! VVe pierced thee once and agen By our iniquity.
3 O let us look until we love, And thee with joy embrace; Men will loath Sin and it forsake When they receive thy Grace.
