Poem

"0 Thou, from whom all blessings spring,

Accept the offering that I bring:

A grateful tribute - heart-felt praise,

For all the riches of Thy grace.

Shall I enjoy Thy bounty, Lord,

And not Thy boundless love record?

Oh let me tell to all around,

What joys in my dear Lord abound.

Jesus! this saving name contains

Eternal glories - endless gains:

The sinner's heart renewed by grace

Becomes Thy chosen dwelling place.

Bless thou the Lord, my soul, and sing

Unceasing praises to thy King

Whose love doth in His counsels shine,

Transcendant, matchless, all divine."

(EXTRACTED. circa 1815).
