William Billings - Chelsea - текст песни (слова)

What beauties divine
 In Jesus do shine,
 Yet all I see, I, with boldness, call mine.
 
 With Him crucified,
 When Jesus he died,
 My nature was purged, and to God purified.
 
 To me it is plain
 When Jesus was slain,
 Eternal redemption He then did obtain.
 
 From bondage and chains,
 From sin and Hell-pains,
 Redemption of all in one man He obtains.
 
 Baptized into Him,
 Who did me redeem,
 His person and glories are my constant theme.
 
 For all of the Lamb
 I rightfully claim,
 To rest in his fullness of stature I aim.
 
 The Father makes known
 What he hath bestown
 On Christ, and instructs me to call it my own.
