He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean, His blood availed for me. 5.

Plung'd in a gulph of dark Despair

Appears in 479 hymnals Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Plung'd in a Gulph of dark Despair, We wretched Sinners lay, Without one chearful Beam of Hope, Or Spark of glimm'ring Day. 2 With pitying Eyes the Prince of Grace Beheld our helpless Grief, He saw, and (O amazing Love!) He ran to our Relief. 3 Down from the shining Seats above With joyful Haste he fled, Enter'd the Grave in mortal Flesh, And dwelt among the Dead. 4 He spoil'd the Pow'rs of Darkness thus, And brake our Iron Chains; Jesus hath freed our Captive Souls From everlasting Pains. [5 In vain the baffled Prince of Hell His cursed Projects tries, We, that were doom'd his endless Slaves, Are rais'd above the Skies.] 6 O for this Love let Rocks and Hills Their lasting Silence break; And all harmonious human Tongues The Saviour's Praises speak. 7 Yes, we will praise Thee, dearest Lord, Our Souls are all on Flame; Hosanna round the spacious Earth To thine adored Name. 8 Angels assist our mighty Joys, Strike all your Harps of Gold; But when you raise your highest Notes, His Love can ne'er be told.

Adoring Jesus

Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Praise to the Redeemer First Line: O come let us join Lyrics: 1 O come let us join, Together combine; To praise our dear Sav'our, our Master Divine. 2 Him let us adore, Who cover'd with Gore, Late hanged on Calv'ry, both wounded and poor. 3 He worthy is bless'd, By Spirits at Rest; Who once in this Desert his Godhead confess'd, 4 The Heavenly Spheres, Who saw him in Tears, Yea ev'ry strong Angel, his Person reveres. 5 The Prophets who told His Suff'rings of old, Sing now sweet Thanksgiving on Psalt'ries of Gold. 6 The Fathers to whom He shew'd he would come, Now in his Pavilion take up their long Home. 7 The Spirits of Men, Who for him were slain, From Able the Righteous, share now in his Reign. 8 Th' apostles who stood, Resisting to Blood, For Jesus's Gospel, rejoice in their God. 9 The Confessor's too, Them prostrating low, Cast down their bright Mitres, and thankfully bow. 10 Oh Church of the Lamb, Here met do the same, With Saints, and with Angels, bless Jesus's Name. 11 My Soul bear a Part, For ransom'd thou art, By Jesu's Blood shedding, his Burial, and Smart. 12 To him that was slain, The scorn'd Nazarene, Be Glory, and Honour, let all say Amen.
