1 /^UICKEN'D with our immortal Head, ^^ Who daily, Lord, ascend with thee, Redeem'd from sin, and free indeed, We taste our glorious liberty. 2 Saved from the fear of hell and death, With joy we seek the things above ; And all thy saints the spirit breathe Of power, sobriety, and love. 3 Power o'er the world, the fiend, and sin, We through thy gracious Spirit feel ; Full power the victory to win, And answer all thy righteous will. oJo For Believers Saved 4 Pure love to God thy members find, Pure love to every soul of man ; And in thy sober, spotless mind, Saviour, our heaven on earth we gain. HYMN 420. l. m. Resurrection. 1 \^E faithful souls, who Jesus know, -*- If risen indeed with him ye are, Superior to the joys below, His resurrection's power declare. 2 Your faith by holy tempers prove , By actions show your sins forgiven ! And seek the glorious things above, And follow Christ, your Head, to heaven, 3 There your exalted Saviour see, Seated at God's right hand again, In all his Father's majesty, In everlasting pomp, to reign. 4 To him continually aspire, Contending for your native place ; And emulate the angel-choir, And only live to love and praise. 5 For who by faith your Lord receive, Ye nothing seek or want beside ; Dead to the world and sin ye live ; Your creature- love is crucified. 6 Your real life, with Christ conceal'd, Deep in the Father's bosom lies ; And, glorious as your Head reveal'd, Ye soon shall meet him in the skies. For Believers Saved. o99 HYMN 421. s. m. 2 Tim. iv. 7- 1 " T THE good fight have fought," -*- O when shall I declare ? The victory by my Saviour got, I long with Paul to share. 0 may I triumph so, When all my warfare 's past ; And, dying, find my latest foe Under my feet at last ! 2 This blessed word be mine Just as the port is gain'd, " Kept by the power of grace divine, 1 have the faith maintain'd." The' Apostles of my Lord, To whom it first was given, They could not speak a greater word, Nor all the saints in heaven. HYMN 422. l. m.
