My Brethren Beloved, Your Calling Ye See;
In Jesus Approved, No Goodness Have We,
No Riches Or Merit, No Wisdom Or Might,
But All Things Inherit Through Jesus’s Right.

Yet Not Many Wise His Summons Obey,
And Great Ones Despise So Vulgar A Way,
And Strong Ones Will Never Their Helplessness Own,
Or Stoop To Find Favour Through Mercy Alone.

And Therefore Our God The Outcasts Hath Chose,
His Righteousness Showed To Heathens Like Us;
When Wise Ones Rejected His Offers Of Grace,
His Goodness Elected The Foolish And Base.

To Baffle The Wise, And Noble, And Strong,
He Bade Us Arise, An Impotent Throng;
Poor Ignorant Wretches, We Gladly Embrace
A Prophet Who Teaches Salvation By Grace.

The Things That Were Not, His Mercy Bids Live;
His Mercy Unbought We Freely Receive;
His Gracious Compassion We Thankfully Prove,
And All Our Salvation Ascribe To His Love.
