Believers of mercy alone,
Of covenant mercy should sing;
Nor fear with Christ’s righteousness on,
Their persons and offerings to bring.
The vengeance of law and of God,
With them can have nothing to do,
The Saviour’s obedience and blood
Hide all their transgressions from view.
The work which his goodness begun
The arm of his strength will complete,
His promise is yea and amen,
And never was forfeited yet:
Things future, nor things that are now,
Not all things below and above,
Can make him his purpose forego,
Or sever the soul from his love.
Believer, thy name from his hands
Eternity will not erase,
Impressed on his heart it remains,
In marks of indelible grace:
Yes! saints to the end shall endure,
As sure as the earnest is given;
More happy but not more secure,
Are glorified spirits in heaven.
