Jeremiah 23:6: JuDAH now, the land of praise
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
JuDAH now, the land of praise,
Is with His Spirit fill'd,
Inward yi?a/j, the sons of grace.
Enjoy their pardon seal'd.
Long as Jesus rules the sky.
His people shall in safety dwell,
All the strength of sin defy,
And all the powers of hell.
Him in every age the same
We joyfully confess,
Justly glory in His name
The Lord our Righteousness!
Ours in righteousness bestow'd,
Ours in righteousness brought in.
Ours with all the life of God
For ever fix'd within.
