    A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion's Hymns. (in long meter)

    "Predestinated"

    I. I sing the gracious fix'd decree,
    Pass'd by the great ETERNAL THREE,
    In council held in heav'n above:
    The Lord's predestinating love.

    2. All that concerns the chosen race,
    In nature, providence, and grace;
    Where they shall dwell - and when remove,
    Fix'd by predestinating love.

    3. Their calling, growth, and robes they wear,
    Their conflicts, trials, daily care,
    Are for them well arrang'd above,
    By God's predestinating love.

    4. In this let Zion's sons rejoice,
    Their God will not revoke His choice;
    Nor sin, nor death, nor hell, can move
    His firm predestinating love.

    5. This is our bulwark of defence,
    Nor foes, nor fiends shall drive us hence:
    In life, and death, and realms above,
    We'll sing predestinating love.
