A CHARLES WESLEY HYMN..-
“Them, snatched out of the flame, Through every nation send, The true Messiah to proclaim, The universal Friend; That all the God unknown May learn of Jews to adore, And see the glory in Thy Son, Till time shall be no more.”
“ O that the chosen band Might now their brethren bring, And, gathered out of every land, Present to Zion’s King ! Of all the ancient race Not one be left behind, But each, impelled by secret grace, His way to Canaan find.
“We know it must be done , For God hath spoke the word; All Israel shall the Saviour own, To their first state restored; Rebuilt by His command, Jerusalem shall rise; Her temple on mount Moriah stand Again, and touch the skies.”
“Send them Thy servants forth, To call the Hebrews home; From east,and west, and south and north. Let all the wanderers come; Where’er in lands unknown The fugitives remain, Bid every creature help them on, Thy holy mount to gain.
“An offering to their God, There let them all be seen, Sprinkled with the water and the blood, In soul and body clean; With Israel’s myriads sealed, Let all the nations meet, Ans show the mystery fulfilled, Thy family complete.!”
