Christ our Wisdom, &c

Buried in Shadows of the Night We lie, till Christ restores the Light Wisdom descends to heal the Blind And chase the Darkness of the Mind.

Our guilty Souls are drown'd in Tears Till thy atoning Blood appears: Then we awake from deep distress And sing, the Lord our Righteousness.

Jesus beholds where Satan reigns, Binding his Slaves in heavy Chains, He sets the Prisoners free and breaks The iron Bondage from our Necks

Poor helpless Worms in thee possess Grace, Wisdom, Power and Righteousness. Thou art our mighty All, and we Give our whole selves, o Lord, to thee.
