Lyics

HAPPY the saints whose lot is cast,

Where oft is heard the gospel sound;

The word is pleasant to their taste,

A healing balm for every wound.



With joy thy hasten to the place

Where they their Saviour oft have met,

And while they feast upon his grace,

Their burdens and their griefs forget.



This favor'd lot, my friends, is ours;

May we the privilege improve,

And find these consecrated hours

Sweet earnests of the joys above.
