John 1:45: While all His holy angels

While all His holy angels
With hymns of praise surround Him,
We sing below
Who Jesus know.
And in our hearts have found Him.
Whom Moses and the prophets
Foretold by inspiration,
We now embrace.
Our Lord confess
Our Saviour, and Salvation:

To all our guilty brethren
We the good news discover,
Believe, and you
Shall find Him too,
The universal Lover.
Receive the true Messias
Whom God to man hath given.
And when you see
And know 'tis He,
You know the joys of heaven.

An Israelite indeed,
A foe to worldly art
May be by prejudice misled,
Yet never err in heart:
God will not leave him long
Without distincter light,
Or let a soul continue wrong
Whose life is in the right.
