Doddridge's Hymn 270, 1755
1. With flowing eyes and bleeding hearts
A blasted world survey!
See the wide ruin sin hath wrought
In one unhappy day!

2. Adam, in God's own image formed
From God and bliss estranged,
And all the joys of paradise
For guilt and horror changed!

3. Ages of labor and of grief
He mourned his glory lost;
At length the goodliest work of heaven
Sunk down to common dust.

4. O fatal heritage bequeathed
To all his helpless race!
Through the thick maze of sin and woe
Thus to the grave we pass.

5. But, O my soul! with rapture hear
The second Adam's name;
And the celestial gifts he brings
To all his seed, proclaim.

6. In holiness and joy complete
He reigns to endless years,
And each adopted chosen child
His splendid image wears.

7. What though in mortal life they mourn!
What though by death they fall!
Jesus in one triumphant day
Transforms and crowns them all.

8 Praise to his rich, mysterious grace!
E'en by our fall we rise,
And gain, for earthly Eden lost,
A heavenly paradise.

 

Jeremy Belknap's Hymn 291, 1795
1. With flowing eyes and bleeding hearts
A fallen world survey!
See the wide ruin sin has made,
In one unhappy day!

2. Adam, in God's own image formed,
See from his God estranged !
And all the joys of paradise
For guilt and horror changed!

3. This fatal heritage bequeath
To all his helpless race!
Through this dark maze of sin and woe
Thus to the grave we pass!

4 But, O my soul, with rapture hear
The second Adam's name;
And the celestial gifts he brings
To all his seed, proclaim.

5 What though in mortal life they mourn?
What though by death they fall?
Jesus in one triumphant day
Transforms and crowns them all!

6. Praise to his rich transcending grace
Even by our fall we rise!
And gain for earthly Eden lost
A heavenly paradise.
––"Mason, altered"
