[Reflecting on this gospel-day]

According to this time it shall be said, &c. —xxiii. 23.

Reflecting on this gospel-day,
And Britain's happy lot,
Latest posterity shall say
What hath Jehovah wrought!
He hath the faithful seed increased,
Ten thousand souls forgiven;
With perfect love His people bless'd,
And caught them up to heaven.
