46. The Lord liveth. Possessing underived, essential, independent and eternal life. We serve
no inanimate, imaginary, or dying God. As the Lord our God liveth, so would we
live to him. He is our rock, the ground of our hope; let him be the
subject of our praise. Our hearts bless the Lord, with holy love extolling him.
Let the God of my salvation be exalted. As our Saviour, the Lord should
more than ever be glorified. We should publish abroad the story of the covenant
and the cross, the Father’s election, the Son’s redemption, and the Spirit’s
regeneration. He who rescues us from deserved ruin should be very dear to us.
In heaven they sing, “Unto him
that loved us and washed us in his blood”; the like music should be common in the assemblies of the saints
below.
