give a kingdom in his good time to his faithful ones," for the ſake and merits of his Son Chriſt Jeſus, our Lord. Amen.
God’s Condeſcention to our Worſhip.
1 THY favours. Lord ſurpriſe our ſouls;
Will the Eternal dwell with us?
What can’ſt thou find beneath the poles,
To tempt thy chariot downward thus?
2 Still might he fill his ſtary throne,
And pleaſe his ears with Gabriel’s ſongs;
But th’ heav’nly Majeſty come’s down,
And bows to hearken to our tongues.
3 Great God! what poor returns we pay
For love ſo infinite as thine?
Words are but air, and tongues but clay
But thy compaſſion’s all divine.
