Էջ 412 - Ten thousand thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart, That tastes those gifts with joy. Through every period of my life, Thy goodness I'll pursue ; And after death, in distant worlds, The glorious theme renew.
Էջ 49 - All Nature is but art, unknown to thee All chance, direction, which thou canst not see; All discord, harmony not understood; All partial evil, universal good: And, spite of pride, in erring reason's spite, One truth is clear, Whatever is, is right.

Էջ 47 - Teach me to feel another's woe, To hide the fault I see; That mercy I to others show, That mercy show to me.
Էջ 206 - The wicked flee when no man pursueth : but the righteous are bold as a lion.
