Here is that Man in whom is viſibly beſeen ſuch Glory, Majeſty, Lovelineſs Sweetneſs, Compaſſion, Mercy, Juſtice Wiſdom, and all treaſures of overflowing Fulneſs of Excellency, in ſuch a Incomprehenſible, Tranſcendent an Eminent, and Superabundant manner, as all the beholders are overwhelmed in a ſea of delightſome raviſhments for evermore,
THE GOSPEL DISCOVERY.
O Lord, my God, exert thy power,
Inſpire my ſoul to ſing,
The wonders of redeeming love,
To heaven's Almighty King.
2 He bows the heavens and comes down,
Into our lions den,
To vent his everlaſting love
unto the ſons of men.
3The wonder of wonders now appears,
BOth lowly meek and mild;
A Virgin Mary moſt conceive;
Our God appears a child.
4 The angels ſing, the ſhepherds run
And ſees Chriſt with their eyes,
Which was ordain d, by heaven’s decree,
For ſin, the ſacrfice.
5 Our great Immanuel, God-man,
Did in a manger lye,
Who ſoon did break the ſerpent's head,
And all his powers defy.
