The ttackless ether take thy flight, far, far
Above yon azure vault; unto the throne
Of GOD.-Deep be thy pause, and sacred be
Thy thoughts; in Deity, lesson learn,
or wisdom most profound.-Behold Behold
The LAMB OF GOD! SLAIN ron A GUILTY WORLD
Ye Seraphim and Cherubim, in dazzling
Grandeur burning round the eternal throne;
Catch the sweet sound, and all We heavenly
Minstrels that exist, in the vast universe
OF God, come and help my soul to utter
This incIable TRUTH, the Savior's love!
And now my soul, light up thy torch of love-,
In this infinite flame, then rapid take
Thy flight to earth; and chant the sweetest song
Of cordial love, unto the troubled soul.
Take now my soul thy soothing Tyre,
And touch the sweetest chords Of love,
Come heavily muse my soul inspire,
To sing of nobler things above.
husband and two children dear,
Are laid IN yonder silent tomb,
And oh what plaintive signs hear,
Amid wife and mothers gloom
II there no cordial for the breast,
OF that poor mothers bleeding hearth
And may she not with them be blest,
And meet again no more to part?
Dyes, methinks voice replies,
Hark what sweet music in that sound!
They all are now in paradise,
In realms Of peace and glory found.
lid them mingling with the throng,
aged in robes of living light,
vchant the sweet and glorious song,
Redeeming love in pure delight.
My spirit seems to catch the lay,
Which heavenly minstrels sweetly sing,
In the bright chimes Of endless day,
Unto the great eternal king.
Rise oh my soul and take thy fight,
Transported to the realms above,
And there behold in pure delight,
The Fountain of redeeming love.
There with the glorious hosts above,
We shall behold the Fathers Son,
Through ceaseess ages sing his love,
While burning round the eternal throne.
In mansions of eternal day,
Where Jesus reigns in grandeur bright,
There all things shed heavenly ray,
Ofpure, serene, and calm delight.
No sorrow e'er shall reach that place,
Satan no more shall there oppose,
SIMS dire effects we'll never trace,
Where all is undisturb'd repose.
Oh may heavily calm pervade,
Thy bleeding heart, in deep distress,
And may this providence be made,
To work to thy SOUPS righteousness.
Now mourner weep no more, but love
The Lord thy God, with all thy heart;
And soon you'll meet them all above,
But never, never from them part.
