While reading the 1852 Australian Latter-day Saint Hymnal for another project, I found the following interesting excerpts which I thought I would share:
"Jehovah" being Used of the Father
in Distinction to the Son:
Hymn 5
4 Bearing the seed of heav'nly
virtue,
Scatter it o'er all the earth.
Go! Jehovah will support you,
Gather all the sheaves of worth,
Then with Jesus,
Reign in glory on the earth.
Hymn 28
4 The name of Jehovah is worthy
of praising,
And so is the Saviour an
excellent theme;
The elders of Israel a standard
are raising,
And call on all nations to come
to the same:
these elders go forth, and the
gospel are preaching.
And all that will hear them they
freely are teaching.
And thus is the vision of Daniel
fulfilling--
The stone of the mountain will
soon fill the earth.
"It is Finished" (John 19:30) being
Understood in a Soteriological Manner (cf. Full Refutation of the Protestant Interpretation of John 19:30)
Hymn 25
1 Hark!--the voice of love and
mercy
Sounds aloud from Calvary!
See! it rends the rocks asunder--
Shakes the earth--and veils the
sky!
"It is finished"--
hear the dying Savior cry!
2 "It is
finished!"--oh, what pleasure
Do these charming words afford!
Heav'nly blessings, without
measure,
Flow to us through Christ the
Lord!
"It is finished!"--
Saints, the dying words record!
3 Tune your harps anew, ye
seraphs,
Join to sing the pleasing theme
All in earth and heav'n uniting,
Join to praise Immanuel's name:
Hallelujah!
Glory to the bleeding Lamb!
