Lyics

Acquaint thee, O mortal! acquaint thee with God,

And joy, like the sunshine, shall beam on thy road;

And peace, like the dew-drop, shall fall on thy head;

And sleep, like an angel, shall visit thy bed.



Acquaint thee, O mortal! acquaint thee with God,

And he shall be with thee when fears are abroad;

Thy safeguard in danger that threatens thy path;

Thy joy in the valley and shadow of death.
