Jude: Mercirut God, vouchsafe to me
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Mercirut God, vouchsafe to me
That last transcendent victory,
That crown of all Thy graces give,
And bid me in Thine image live,
Till wholly sanctified I rise,
To feast on Christ in paradise.
Christ is the Tree of life Divine;
I live indeed, if Christ be mine:
And when He doth Himself bestow,
My God as I am known, I know,
And all the life of glory prove,
For ever fill'd with heavenly love.
