Each for a thank-off ring brings.

Fading is the worldling s pleasure,
All his boasted pomp and show ;
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but Zion s children know.

I my blood have freely spilt:
Though your heart has long been harden d,
Look on me it soft shall grow ;
Past transgressions shall be pardon d,
And I ll wash you white as snow.

Though you little thought of me ;
You were madly bent on ruin,
But I said It shall not be :
