Jesus, in whom I now believe,
The Author of my faith Thou art,
The words Thou didst from God receive
Thy Spirit hath spoke them to my heart:
By these convinc’d I surely know
Thou art his co-eternal Son,
Who sent thee down to die below,
And bring his rebels to his throne.
Jesus, in whom I now believe
