Isaiah 41:20: Dead souls I will anew create
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Dead souls I will anew create,
To make My truth and mercy known,
Restore them to their first estate,
And perfect all My saints in one;
That sinners may My love confess,
My favour and lost image find,
Convinced, I sent My Son to bless,
And save the whole apostate kind.
Sinners My witnesses shall see
Produced by a celestial birth,
And own, the ancient piety
The gracious work revived on earth;
And while their willing hearts receive
The proofs of My transforming power,
The world shall all at once believe.
And every soul My Son adore.
