Acts 28:20: For the hope of Israel I am bound with, dfc
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Bound he is, yet truly free,
Bound for his Redeemer's sake.
Him who suffering on the tree-
Did for all atonement make;
1 oth to every sinner bring
Pardon in His sprinkled blood,
Christ the Prophet, Priest, and Kii
Israels Hope, ami Israels God.
On this only ground relies
Every soul that faith receives,
Jesus my Redeemer dies,
Jesus my Redeemer lives;
Lives, that I and all mankind
May, to liberty restored,
fulness of salvation find,
Live for ever with our Lord.
