Watts.

Christ had His friends—His eye could trace

In the long train of coming years,

The chosen children of His grace,

The full reward of all His tears.

These are friends, and these are thine,

If thou to Him hast bowed the knee;

And where these ransomed millions shine

Shall thy eternal mansion be.
