Lyics

There is no path to heavenly bliss,
To solid joy, or fasting peace,
But Christ, th' appointed road:
O may we tread the sacred way,
By faith rejoice, and sing, and pray,
Till we sit down with God.


The types and shadows of the word
Unite in Christ, the man, the Lord,
The Saviour kind and true:
O may we still his word believe,
And all his promises receive,
And all his precepts do!


As he above forever lives,
And life to dying mortals gives,
Eternal and divine,
O may his Spirit in me dwell!
Then, save from sin, and death, and hell,
Eternal life is mine.
