Deuteronomy 32:13, 14: When first He freely justified

When first He freely justified,
And did my pardon seal,
O'er earth's strongholds He bade me ride,
O'er all the powers of hell:
Butter and milk He made me eat,
And lifted up on high
I saw the moon beneath my feet,
I soar'd above the sky.

With all the new-born babes I fed
Upon the milky word.
Partaker of the children's bread,
The favour of my Lord;
I feasted on the Paschal Lamb
Who all my wants supplied,
And with the sweetness of His name
My soul was satisfied.
The bliss of those above I knew,
The angels' food partook,
Fresh oil, and sweetest honey drew
Out of the heavenly Rock;
The joy, and love from Jesus flow'd,
And tasting Him as mine,
I drank the purest richest blood
Of that immortal Vine.
