HYMN XI. FOR THE PRINCE OF WALES.

When late translated to the skies
He gains the never fading crown,
O let his rightful heir arise,
To tread the world and Satan down,
With every royal grace endow'd
To build, and guard the house of God.

121

Through him to Britain's realms restore
The blessing of Josiah's sway,
While faith's full purity and power
Bring back that ancient gospel day,
Abundant peace on earth is given,
And righteousness comes down from heaven.
