Lyics

Ah! whither could we fly for aid,

When tempted, desolate, dismayed--

Or how the host of hell defeat,

Had suffering saints no Mercy Seat.



There! there on eagle wings we soar,

And sin and sense seem all no more,

And heaven comes down our souls to greet

And glory crowns the Mercy Seat.
