Hymn 1:49. The works of Moses and the Lamb, Rev. 15. 3.

← Hymns and Spiritual Songs

1 How strong thine arm is, mighty God, Who would not fear thy Name! Jesus, how sweet thy graces are! Who would not love the Lamb!

2 He has done more than Moses did, Our Prophet and our King; From bonds of hell he freed our souls, And taught our lips to sing.

3 In the Red-sea by Moses' hand Th' Egyptian host was drown'd; But his own blood hides all our sins, And guilt no more is found.

4 When thro' the desert Israel went, With manna they were fed; Our Lord invites us to his flesh, And calls it living bread.

5 Moses beheld the promis'd land, Yet never reach'd the place; But Christ shall bring his followers home To see his Father's face.

6 Then shall our love and joy be full, And feel a warmer flame; And sweeter voices tune the song Of Moses and the Lamb.
