Hymns on the Trinity, 45
From Hymns on the Trinity (1767) · Osborn ed., vol. 7 (1870)
All things unto Christ, as man,
By Another are subdued;
But we steadfastly maintain
He that Other is, as God:
He can, as Jehovah's Son,
All things to Himself subdue:
Jesus sitting on His throne
Makes our universe anew.
Jesus, Son of the Most High,
Power omnipotent is Thine;
Lord of all in earth and sky,
Vindicate Thy right Divine;
Conquer this rebellious heart:
Then I know, in love renew'd,
Thou, my present Saviour, art
The One, true, eternal God.
