Hus fpoke the Saviour of the world, and rais'd his eyes to heav'n :

To thee, O father! Lord of all, eternal praise be giv❜n.

II.

Thou to the pure and lowly heart haft heav'nly truth reveal'd; Which from the self-conceited mind thy wisdom hath conceal'd..

Even fo, thou Father! haft ordain'd thy high decree to stand;

Nor men nor angels may prefume the reason to demand.

IV.

Thou only know'ft the Son; from thee my kingdom I receive;

And none the Father know but they

who in the Son believe.

V.

Come then to me, all ye who groan,
with guilt and fears opprefs'd;
Refign to me the willing heart,
and I will give you rest.

VI.

Take up my yoke, and learn of me
the meek and lowly mind;
And thus your weary troubled fouls
repose and peace shall find.

For light and gentle is my yoke; the burden I impofe

Shall ease the heart which groan'd before beneath a load of woes.

To cleanse the soul in fin that lies;
In this the covenant is feal'd,
And Heav'n's eternal grace reveal'd.

VI.

With love to man this cup is fraught,
Let all partake the facred draught;
Through latest ages let it pour,
In mem❜ry of my dying hour.
