Who can resist thy heavenly love, | |||

The Spirit dwells with men. | |||

My hope, my joy begins; | |||
His name forbids my slavish fear, | |||
His grace removes my sins. | |||

And Greeks of wisdom boast, | |||
I love th' incarnate mystery, | |||
And there I fix my trust.}}''God reconciled in Christ'', by Isaac Watts, 1709 | |||
