Jeremiah 31:12: Sing, ye happy souls, that press
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Sing, ye happy souls, that press
Toward the height of holiness.
Praise Him whom in part ye know.
Freely to His goodness flow.
All His promises receive,
All the grace He hath to give.
Jointly, Lord, we come to Thee,
All in one request agree.
Feed us with the living Bread,
With Thyself our spirits feed.
Give the unction from above,
Oil of joy, and wine of love.
