The Son

Listen in the reader

When GOD the Earths Foundations laid My Joys were with Mens Sons, Since which the Purchase I have Paid, Whence their Redemption comes

Whereof he freely shall Partake With others whom I Save, O Father, Love him for my sake! For him thy Love I crave.

I can to th' utmost him Redeem Though his Condition's low, He shall my Precious Blood esteem And its Effects shall know.
