Lyics

DEAR brethren come draw near to God

With songs of sacred praise,

For he is good, immensely good,

And just are all his ways.



All nature owns his guardian care,

In him we live and move;

But nobler benefits declare

The wonders of his love.



He gave his Son, his only Son,

To ransom rebel worms;

'Tis here he makes his goodness known

In its diviner forms.
