Succour every tempted Soul,
Let thy Spirit make them whole :
Give them clearly for to fee,
All their Righteousness in thee.
O Almighty Saviour, God,
Wafh us in thy cleanfing Blood,
Purge our Hearts with holy Fire,
With thy Love our Souls inspire.
Shed abroad thy heavenly Love,
Hear our Cry, celeftial Dove,
Shine in every gloomy Heart,
And fresh Joys to each impart.

[blocks in formation]

SAVIOUR, let us part in Peace,
Cloathed with thy Righteousness,

Give us always this to feel,
By the ftamp of Jefu's Seal.

Help us fimply to believe,
Saviour, now the Promife give,
Now, by Faith, thy Blood apply
To each Heart, that ftandeth by.

O, imprefs it on each Heart,
Let it never, never part;
That thy lovely Sacrifice,
Sinners wholly juftifies.

Strengthen

Strengthen us, Almighty Lord,
By thy Spirit's quick'ning Word,
Help each Brother to go on,
Treading Sin and Satan down.

Our Almighty Captain, Thou,
At thy Feet, behold, we bow;
Keep us, 'till me meet again,
Near thy loving Heart, dear Lamb.

RISE, my Soul, and ftretch thy Wings, Thy better Portion trace;

Rife from tranfitory Things,

Tow'rds Heav'n, thy native Place: Sun, and Moon, and Stars decay,

Time fhall foon this Earth remove;

Rife, my Soul, and hafte away
To Seats prepar'd above.

Rivers to the Ocean run,

Nor stay in all their Course;
Fire afcending feeks the Sun,
Both speed them to their Source:
So a Soul that's born of God
Pants to view his glorious Face,
Upwards tends to his Abode,
To reft in his Embrace.

Ceafe, ye Pilgrims, ceafe to mourn,
Prefs onward to the Prize;

Soon our Saviour will return
Triumphant in the Skies:
Yet a Seafon, and you know
Happy Entrance will be giv'n,
All our Sorrows left below,
And Earth exchang'd for Heav'n.

To ceafe from Toil below.

Doubts and Fears, and Cares remove;
Let us walk with God below,
In his Likeness daily grow.
