A Teacher come from God, and more

Verse 1
A Teacher come from God, and more,
In Thee we God himself adore,
While in our inward parts
Thou dost thy kind instructions write,
And make them the supreme delight
Of true believing hearts.

Verse 2
Master, instruct us thus to know
Th’ eternal God reveal’d below,
By miracles of grace
Of thy divinity convince,
For only God can cancel sins,
And save a ruin’d race.

Verse 3
God over all unless Thou art,
Thou canst not change the evil heart,
Our soul-diseases heal;
But of thy Spirit born, we prove
Thou art th’ Almighty God of love
By proofs infallible.
