God
hath shined in our hearts.
2
Corinthians 4:6
if you are not so now,
it is because God hath enlightened you.
ignorant of ourselves, and
ignorant of the Lord Jesus.
In reference to our destiny, all dark.
therefore we were careless, cruel, hardened,
and presumptuous.
we discovered our state,
caught a glimpse of his true character,
became alarmed at our condition, and
began to look out and inquire for deliverance.
we saw the Lord Jesus as the Saviour of sinners;
he appeared just suited to us, and
we began to long, pray, and seek for an interest
in his glorious person and finished work.
and we embraced him as God's salvation,
found peace,
enjoyed liberty, and
had access into God's favour,
and rejoice in hope of his glory.
that in thy light we may see light,
and glorify thy name!
Expand
thy wings, celestial Dove,
And
brooding o’er my nature’s night,
Call
forth the ray of heavenly love,
Let
there in my dark soul be light,
And
fill the illustrated abyss
With
glorious beams of heavenly bless.
