A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion's Hymns. (in common meter)
"Predestinating Love"
1. Amazing love! transcendent grace!
Redemption's scheme displays;
In God's predestinated race,
To His eternal praise.
2. His sons, by Him, were all foreknown,
And register'd above;
Predestinated to a crown,
By everlasting love.
3. On this eternal, fix'd decree,
All things in time depend;
Salvation, perfect, full, and free,
And glory without end.
4. 'Tis God's predestinating love
Transforms the chosen race;
Prepares the Church for joys above,
And crowns triumphant grace.
