SUPPLICATION.
       Why should I cleave to things below
       And let my God, my Saviour go ?
     3  Call me away from flesh and sense;
       One sovereign word can call me thence;
       I would obey the voice divine,
       And all inferior joys resign.
     4  Be earth with all her scenes withdrawn,
       Let noise and vanity begone:
       In secret silence of the mind
       My heaven, and there my God, I find.

     1  GATHER, whate’er of earthly bliss
       I Thy sovereign will denies,
       Accepted at thy throne of grace,
        Let this petition rise.
     2  Give me a calm, a thankful heart,
        From every murmur free;
       The blessings of thy grace impart,
        And make me live to thee.
     3  Let the sweet hope that thou art mine
        My life and death attend ;
       Thy presence through my journey shine,
        And crown my journey’s end.
