To the Northern Star.
The northern star, the northern star!Oh may it ever shine;
And shed its beacon rays afar,
So heavenly and divine.
May slavery and oppression shrink,
Beneath its searching rays;
May it turn those who rave and drink
From their imprudent ways.
Devoted to the Christian cause,
Oh, may it ever stand;
Proclaim the mighty maker's laws,
Throughout this sinful land.
With these great principles engraved
Upon thy radiant face,
On! till oppressor, and enslaved,
Shall own God's saving grace.
