After Sermon (Book III, Hymn 99)
From Olney Hymns, Book III (1779)
Religion
The saints EMMANUEL'S portion are,
Redeemed by price, reclaimed by pow'r;
His special choice, and tender care,
Owns them and guards them every hour.
He finds them in a barren land
Beset with sins, and fears, and woes;
He leads and guides them by his hand,
And bears them safe from all their foes.
