Lyics

SAVIOUR, Thy law we love,

Thy pure example bless,

And with a firm, unwav'ring zeal,

Would in Thy footsteps press.



Not to the fiery pains

By which the martyrs bled;

Not to the scourge, the thorn, the cross,

Our favor'd feet are led;



But at this peaceful tide,

Assembled in Thy fear,

The homage of obedient hearts,

We humbly offer here.
