Hymne.
SAviour of Mankind, Man Emanuel,
Who sinlesse died for Sin, who vanquisht Hell,
The first fruits of the Grave, whose life did give
Light to our Darknes, in whose death we live.
O strengthen thou my faith, correct my will,
That mine may thine obey: protect me still,
So that the latter death may not devour
My soule seal'd with thy Seale; so in the houre
When thou whose body sanctified thy Tombe
(Unjustly judg'd) a glorious Judge shalt come
To judge the World with Justice; by that signe
I may be known and entertained for thine.
