In the Gospel we participate
And God works in our hearts
He makes us partakers of grace
And
then sets us apart.
For His good pleasure we have lived,
And
part of heaven
possessed;
Partakers
have His
grace received,
And
trust him for the rest.
Blest
are believers who partake
of Gospel
grace for
Jesus' sake;
Their
souls shall triumph in the Lord
-Glory
and joy are their reward.
The
souls enlightened from above
Partakers
of the
Word,
Shall
see what wisdom, power, and love
Shine
in their dying Lord.
Yes,
and we
must and will esteem
All
things but loss for Jesus' sake:
O
may our
souls
be found in him,
And
of his righteousness partake!
Blest
are believers who partake ofGospel
grace for
Jesus' sake;
Their
souls shall triumph in the Lord
Glory
and joy are their reward.
He
is the Sun of Righteousness
New
heavens
he
will make;
None
but the new-born heirs of grace
His
glories shall partake.
The
saints on earth and redeemed dead
But
one communion make;
All
join in Christ their living Head,
And
of his grace partake.
Blest
are believers who partake of Gospel
grace for
Jesus' sake;
Their
souls shall triumph in the Lord
Glory
and joy are their reward.
After
Isaac Watts
Philippians
1:6-8
