And India boasts no more.

When dark and sad we stray;
Here, beams of heav'n relieve our woe,
And guide to endless day.

To cheer the fainting mind;
And thirsty souls receive supplies,
And sweet refreshment find.

United rend the heart,
Here, sinners meet divine relief,
And cool the raging smart.

Attend the blissful sound.

(Delightful, dreadful scene!)

That Jesus died for men.

My ever-dear delight,
And still new beauties may I see,
And still increasing light.
