A New Creature — Don Fortner

(Tune: #10 — O God, Our Help in Ages Past — CM)

1.    God’s mighty acts, wisdom and power

Are seen in nature’s frame;

Earth’s hills and streams, and heav’n’s high tower

Omnipotence proclaim.

2.    But mercy’s work demands my praise,

(Here greater power’s displayed!);

Jehovah has, by sov’reign grace,

A new creation made.

3.    From Adam’s ruins He selects

The stones which in him fell;

And temples for Himself erects,

In which the Lord will dwell.

4.    The work begun He’ll ne’er forsake,

Though earth and hell oppose;

His name and honor are at stake,

To save the ones He chose.

5.    O let this thought give cheer each hour: —

The Lord will not forsake:

New creatures, made by blood and power,

He will to glory take.
