'Twas fixt in God�s eternal mind,
When his dear sons should mercy find :
From everlasting he decreed,
When ev�ry good should be convey�d.
Determin�d was the manner, how
We should be brought the Lord to know;
Yea, he decreed the very place,
Where he would call us by his grace.
Vast were the settlements of grace
On millions of the human race;
And ev�ry favor richly given,
Flows from the high decrees of heaven.
In ev�ry mercy, full and free,
Th� appointing God I wish to see;
To see how grace, free grace has reign�d
In ev�ry blessing he ordain�d.
Yes, dearest Lord, �tis my desire
Thy wise appointments to admire,
And trace the footsteps of my God
Thro� ev�ry part of Zion�s road.
