The Elect Ransomed. Isa. 53. 6, 7; 2 Cor. 5. 21

1 Our Jesus loves his dear elect;
  With glory they shall all be decked
  Before his Father’s face.
  Not one of them for whom he bled,
  But shall with joy behold their Head,
  In heaven their dwelling-place.

2 [They are the travail of his soul;
  His sweetest thoughts on them did roll
  From all eternity.
  And, as the jewels of his crown,
  He’ll give them honour, peace, renown,
  And full felicity.]

3 Their sins upon him all were laid,
  And he the dreadful debt has paid,
  (A debt no more to pay;)
  Their Surety in their law-place stood,
  Appeased stern Justice with his blood,
  And bore their sins away.
