HYMNS

See where rebellious paſſions rage,
And fierce deſires and luſt engage;
The meaneſt foe of all the train
Has thouſands and ten thouſands ſlain.

Thou tread'ſt upon enchanted ground,
Perils and ſnares beſet thee round;
Beware of all, guard every part,
But moſt, the traitor in thy heart.

Come then, my ſoul, now learn to wield
The weight of thine immortal ſhield;
Put on the armour from above
Of heavenly truth and heavenly love.

The terror and the charm repel,
And powers of earth, and powers of hell;
The man of Calvary triumph'd here;
Why ſhould his faithful followers fear?
