redeem_v we_o from_o all_o iniquity_n to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n into_o the_o glorious_a liberty_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o be_v make_v free_a from_o

of_o mankind_n ought_v with_o all_o thankfulness_n of_o heart_n to_o acknowledge_v and_o adore_v he_o as_o the_o saviour_n of_o we_o all_o if_o notwithstanding_o all_o his_o tender_n of_o grace_n
