HYMN 50.
The Power of God's Word.
1 O Lord, 'tis matter of high Praise thy Word on us doth shine; But Happy they who feel it's rays, and glorious Power Divine. 2 O let poor Sinners feel their Sin prick them, as with a sword; And Purge out all that Filth within; so will we praise thy Word.
3 Enlightened Souls have cause to sing, who Wounded were by thee; True cause of joy to such doth spring; for they, Lord, He aled be; ⟨p. 56⟩4 And now in Robes, most richly decked, they to the King are brought; Surpassing Angels; for have they a Robe so richly Wrought.
