SASIUBr. WOLCOTT (1813-lSSfi).
ClHRIST for the world ! we sing ^The world to CTirist we bring With loving zeal — The poor, and them that mourn, The faint and overborne, Sin-sick and sorrow-worn, Whom Christ doth heal.
Christ for the world ! we sing ; The world to Christ we bring
With fervent prayer — The wayward and the lost. By restless passions tossed, Redeemed at countless cost
From dark despair.
Christ for the world ! we sing ; The world to Christ we bring
With one accord ; With us the work to share. With us reproach to dare, With us the cross to bear.
For Christ our Lord.
Christ for the world ! we sing ; The world to Christ we bring
With joyful song ; — The new-born souls whose days. Reclaimed from error's ways. Inspired with hope and praise,
To Christ belong.
