The Man Blessed who Believes in Christ. John 14. 1-3

1 How blest is the man who in Jesus believes
  And on him can cast all his cares;
  A righteousness full and complete he receives,
  That hides all his guilt, sin, and fears.

2 [No creature on earth is more happy than he,
  Nor Gabriel himself is more blest;
  He lives on the bounty of grace, rich and free –
  A glorious, immortal repast.]

3 Whate’er be his lot, while on earth he resides,
  His glory can never depart;
  He’s one in the Lord, and in him he abides,
  United together in heart.

4 The time is now fixèd, and soon it will come,
  When Christ will his messenger send,
  To fetch him from Meshech and carry him home;
  And then all his sorrows will end.
