No farther seek his Merits to disclose, Or draw his Frailties from their dread Abode, (There they alike in trembling Hope repose) The Bosom of his Father, and his God. Thomas Gray. GOOD DESIRES. QUIET, Lord, my froward heart, Make me teachable and mild, Upright, simple, free from art, Make me as a weaned child;From distrust and envy free, Pleased with all that pleases Thee.

Let us sing, though fierce temptations Threaten hard to bear us down! For the Lord, our strong salvation, Holds in view the Conqu'ror's crown; He, who wash'd us with His blood, Soon will bring us home to God. Let us wonder, Grace and Justice Join and point to Mercy's shore; When through gra...
