CCXXVI. True Liberty given by CHRIST.

HArk! for 'tis GOD's own Son that calls
To Life and Liberty;
Transported fall before his Feet,
Who makes the Pris'ners free.

The cursed Bonds of Sin he breaks,
And breaks old Satan's Chain:
Smiling he deals those Pardons round,
Which free from endless Pain.

Into the captive Heart he pours
His Spirit from on high;
We lose the Terrors of the Slave,
And Abba, Father, cry.

Shake off your Bonds, and sing his Grace;
The Sinner's Friend proclaim;
And call on all around to seek
True Freedom by his Name.

Walk on at large, till you attain
Your Father's House above;
There shall you wear immortal Crowns,
And sing redeeming Love.
