All in All

Verse 1

Cone, tho' we can truly sing, In our flesh dwells no good thing; Yet on him who gives us all, We're embolden'd still to call.

Verse 2

Blind, and foolish once were we, Christ our wisdom now we see; In this wisdom we confide, By this we are justifi'd;

Verse 3

Once in breaking God's command, Doom'd to death beneath his hand; Now we're call'd to own, and bless, Jesus Christ our righteousness.

Verse 4

Without purity of heart Truth divine will say depart, But this holiness we find, In the Saviour of mankind.

Verse 5

Many, mighty are our foes! Human these, angelic those, Where for refuge shall we flee? Christ our great redemption see!

Verse 6

Seraphs, flames of sacred fire, View this myst'ry with desire; Hark! the bright enraptur'd throng Catch, and raise the grateful song.

Verse 7

O ye thrones of heav'nly light, Since you're sav'd from endless night, And since we are rais'd to you, Let us still the song pursue.
