Revelation 1: Verses 4, 5, 6

O That the life-infusing grace,
The pure and perfect peace of God,
Might now descend on Israefs race,
The church He purchased with His blood!

The souls peculiarly His own,
On them the choicest gifts descend
From Him that sitteth on the throne,
Ancient of Days which never end.

He was from all eternity,
Pure essence, life, and light, and power;
He is when time no more shall be,
He is and shall be evermore.

From God to all His church below,
From the seven spirits before His throne.
From Jesus, let the blessing flow;
Jesus is God's co-equal Son.

The true and faithful Witness He,
The First-begotten of the dead,
Prince of the kings of earth — to Thee
Be everlasting homage paid.

Amazing height of love Divine!
We praise with all Thy hosts above
The' unutterably great design,
The mystery of redeeming love.

From actual and from inbred sin
Us thou hast wash'd in Thine own blood;
Thy blood hath more than made us clean,
Hath made us kings and priests to God.

Wherefore to Thee all honour, praise,
Dominion, power, and thanks we give,
While to the glory of Thy grace
Through all eternity we live.
