He hath said, from all sin Ye here shall be clean, All-holy, all-pure, and all-glorious within. We rest on his word, We shall here be restor'd To his image; the servant shall be as his Lord. Our faith is not vain, We are sure to regain The nature divine of the heavenly man. Then let us not stop, But continue in hope Rejoicing, 'till all in his image wake up; His purity share, His character bear, And the truth of his hallowing promise declare. Thus, thus let us stay, And wait for the day When the angels are sent to conduct us away. Page 180 When with joy we remove To our brethren above, And fly up to heaven in a chariot of love. Hymns for Those that Wait for Full Redemption. Hymn XXVI.33 All glory, and praise to Jesus our Lord, We witness his grace, and life-giving word, Poor justified sinners his goodness we prove, The weakest beginners in Jesus his love. His love we proclaim, and publish abroad, The blood of the Lamb hath brought us to God: He purchas'd our pardon, who died in our stead, The uttermost farthing our surety hath paid. He died from all sin our souls to redeem, And we shall be clean, and sinless thro' him, The end of his passion accomplish'd shall be, And all his salvation we shortly shall see. Then let us go on, 'till Jesus appear, And give us the crown of righteousness here; 'Till justified fully his promise we prove, All happy, and holy, and perfect in love.
