With graces from above

Verse 1
With graces from above
Myself will comfort you,
And fondle with a kinder love
Than mothers ever knew;
Your joyful souls shall see
Jerusalem restor’d,
Your bones reviv’d and strengthen’d be
By virtue from the Lord:

Verse 2
He in the heathen’s sight
For you his hand shall raise,
The hand of his supporting might,
Of his inriching grace;
But dreadful to his foes
He shall his strength employ,
And crush whoe’er his church oppose,
And Antichrist destroy.

Hymnal/Album: Originally titled “As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the Lord shall be known towards his servants, and his indignation towards his enemies.”—[Isa.] lxvi. 13, 14.
