HYMN XII.

O Choicest Banquet! rarest Wine!
O Soul-reviving Blood!
O Table well spread with Heav'nly Bread!
O delicatest Food!

What glorious company was here!
the Fa•…•…er, Spirit, Son,
And a great Troop of shining ones
embodyed into one.

O grace! free grace! rich glorious grace!
foundation and topstone
In great Redemption's Building, and
it's cementing alone.

O Mercy, Goodness, Peace dish't up!
O glorious Bill of fare!
O Love, the Garnishing of all!
O Love beyond compare!

Who would not love the King of Saints?
who would not love the Lord?
Thy Person is all beautiful;
how Honey-sweet thy word!

Who would not praise thee Zions King,
and trumpet forth thy Fame!
Who art with richest Glory 'ray'd,
how well perfum'd thy Name!

Still Honour Glory and Renown
be given unto thee:
Hosannah's! Hallelujahs! Sing
to all Eternity.
