Abraham's blessing on the Gentiles. br br Rom. 11:16,17. br br Gentiles by nature, we belong br To the wild olive wood; br Grace took us from the barren tree, br And grafts us in the good. br br With the same blessings grace endows br The Gentile and the Jew; br If pure and holy be the root, br Such are the branches too. br br Then let the children of the saints br Be dedicate to God, br Pour out thy Spirit on them, Lord, br And wash them in thy blood. br br Thus to the parents and their seed br Shall thy salvation come, br And num'rous households meet at last br In one eternal home.
