Jesus, exalted as a Prince and a Savior

Philip Doddridge • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 89:27

Verse 1

Exalted Prince of Life, we own The royal honors of thy throne: 'Tis fix'd by God's Almighty hand, And seraphs bow at thy command.

Verse 2

Exalted Saviour, we confess The sov'reign triumphs of thy grace; Where beams of gentle radiance shine, And temper majesty divine.

Verse 3

Wide thy resistless sceptre sway, Till all thine enemies obey; Wide may thy cross its virtue prove, And conquer millions by its love.

Verse 4

Mighty to vanquish, and forgive! Thine Isr'el shall repent and live; And laud proclaim thy healing breath, Which works their life, who wrought thy death.
