Acts 14:27: When they were come, and had gathered the, &c

When ministers make known
What God by them hath done,
We who pray'd for their success,
Thankful for our answer'd prayer.
Testify His faithfulness,
All His gracious works declare.

With joy we now approve
The truth of Jesus' love,
God, the universal God
He the door hath open'd wide,
Faith on sinners poor bestow'd,
Wash'd them in I lis bleeding side.

Purged from the stains of sin,
By faith they enter'd in,
Purchased and redeein'd of old.
Added to the chosen race,
Now received into the fold
Heathens sing their Saviour's praise.

With them we lift our voice,
Partakers of their joys,
Conscious of the blood applied,
Freely all through faith forgiven;
Faith renews the justified,
Faith unfolds the gates of heaven.
