O people selected by sovereign love,
Thro' free grace elected to glory above;
What cause for uniting your voices to sing;
What cause for delighting in Jesus your King.

What people so blessed, so honored of God,
Redeemed from transgression by Calvary's Blood,
Your enemies vanquished, your wants all supplied,
By Him who has promised, "The Lord will provide."

For He who has loved you, and bought you with Blood,
Will surely bestow ev'ry covenant good;
He'll ever be near you, to save to the end,
Then trust Him, and praise Him, your Saviour and Friend.
