ON THE

NEW TESTAMENT.

D^r. Watts.

Happy the humble soul that takes

And binds the gospel to his heart,

That tastes the love the saviour speaks,

And feels the joys his lips impart.

Not Sinai's dreadful thunders roll,

Nor there his wrathful lightning shines;

But peace to cheer the fainting soul,
