3 No evil tidings fhall furprize,
His well-establish'd mind;

His foul to God his refuge flies,
And leaves his fears behind.

4 In times of general distress
Some beams of light shall shine,
To fhew the world his righteoufnefs,
And give him peace divine.

5 His works of piety and love,
Remain before the Lord;

Honour on earth, and joys above,
Shall be his fure reward.

HYMN 111.-ON THE DEATH OF A BELIEVER,

IS finish'd, 'tis done!

[ocr errors]

The fpirit is fled,
The pris'ner is gone,
The chriftian is dead:
The chriftian is living

Thro' Jefus his love,

And gladly receiving
A kingdom above.

2 All honour and praife
Is Jefus's due;

Supported by grace,

He fought his way thro':
Triumphantly glorious,

Thro' Jefus's zeal,
And more than victorious

O'er fin, death and hell.

3 Then let us record

The conquering name, Our Captain and Lord With shoutings proclaim: Who truft in his paffion, And follow our head,

To certain falvation

We all fhall be led.

4 O Jefus, lead on

Thy militant care,

And give us the crown,
Of righteoufnefs there
Where dazzled with glory

The feraphim gaze,
Or proftrate adore thee

In filence of praise.

5 Come, Lord, and display Thy fign in the sky,

And bear us away

To manfions on high:

The kingdom be given,

The purchase divine,
And crown us in heav'n
Eternally thine.
