217. ‘Let us love, and sing, and wonder.’

edit

1. Let us love, and sing, and wonder—
Let us praise the Saviour’s name;
He has hush’d the law’s loud thunder, 
He has quench’d mount Sinai’s flame; 
He has wash’d us in His blood,
He has brought us nigh to God.

2. Let us love the Lord th at bought us,
Pity’d us when enemies;
Called us by His grace, and taught us, 
Gave us ears, and gave us eyes;
He has wash’d us in His blood,
He presents our souls to God.

3. Let us sing, though fierce temptation
Threaten hard to bear us down;
For the Lord, our strong salvation, 
Holds in view the conqu’ror’s crown; 
He Who wash’d us in His blood,
Safe will bring us home to God.

4. Let us wonder; grace and justice
Join, and point to mercy’s store; 
Christ hath died; in Him our tru st is;
Justice smiles, and asks no m ore;
He Who wash’d us in His blood,
Has secur’d our way to God.
