LESSON XVIII. Of the means of Grace

What kind provision God has made, That we may safe to heaven be led! For this the prophets preach'd and wrote, For this the blest apostles taught. For this he churches did ordain, His truths and worship to maintain; For this he pastors did provide, In those assemblies to preside. He from the round of common days, Mark'd out our sabbaths to his praise. Delightful day, when christians meet, To hear, and pray, and sing, how sweet!
