The counsels of redeeming grace
The sacred leaves unfold;
And here the Saviour's lovely face
Our raptured eyes behold.
Here light descending from above
Directs our doubtful feet;
Here promises of heavenly love
Our ardent wishes meet.
Our numerous griefs are here redressed,
And all our wants supplied;
Naught we can ask to make us blest
Is in this book denied.
For these inestimable gains,
That so enrich the mind,
O may we search with eager pains,
Assured that we shall find!
