YOU that the Holy JESUS love,
Make mention of his Name;* 1.1
The great Atchievements of his Grace
In thankful Verse proclaim.
True, they the highest Thoughts surpass,
Can't be in Words exprest;* 1.2
Yet something of 'em you may tell,
And wonder out the rest.
Remember all his mighty Deeds,
And all his Sufferings too,* 1.3
How he abas'd his Glorious Self,
To bleed and die for you.
Remember all the Shame and Scorn,
The Vinegar and Gall,* 1.4
The gaping Wounds thrô which he pour'd* 1.5
His Blood, his Life, and All.
His Vertues, and his Miseries* 1.6
Both numberless were found;
Sorrows from Earth, from Heaven and Hell,* 1.7
His innocent Soul surround.
Crucify'd by the worst of Men,* 1.8
Forsaken by the best;
With th' endless Number of our Sins,* 1.9
Sins endless Weight oppress'd.* 1.10
