That Other Lords have sway'd,

Have in my Heart fet up their Throne,
And Abject I obey'd.

And robb'd Thee of Thy Due,
A Slave to every Vice I was,
And only Evil knew.

Paffion, and Appetite, and Pride,
And Self, and Nature reign'd..

Blafted their Strength, o'return'd their Power, And I am fav'd at laft.

Forever be ador'd,

I now fhall live to blefs Thy Name,
And call my JESUS, LORD.

From their Destructive Power, Nail'd to the Crofs they all are dead, And fhall revive no more.

Thofe other Lords perfift to flay,
And fuffer them to rife no more.

And timely fly from Danger near,
With Reverence unto Thee rejoice,
And love Thee with a Filial Fear.

And fuffer not my Feet to flide,
Support me in the Glorious Strife,
And comfort me on every Side.

And bring me to the Promis'd Land,
Where Righteousness and Peace refide,
And All fubmit to LovE's Command.

And Springs of pure Delights arife,
Delights which I fhall fhortly know;

I claim the Purchase of Thy Blood.

14. Of Righteoufnefs Divine poffeft
O let me grafp the Prize fo nigh,
Enter into the Promis'd Rest,
Enjoy Thy Perfect Love, and die.
