To Thee, O God, I pray;

To Thee my withered hands arise;

To Thee I lift my failing eyes:

Oh! cast me not away!

Sir R. Grant.

Who spoke creation into birth,

Arch’d the broad heavens, and spread the rolling earth;

Who form’d a pathway for the obedient sun,

And bade the seasons in their circles run;

Who fill’d the air, the forest, and the flood,
