[The souls that Israel leave]

Thy sister is gone back unto her people, and unto her gods. —i. 15.

The souls that Israel leave
Will Israel's God forsake,
And who to Moab's people cleave
Will Moab's idols take:
Jesus, if Thou art mine,
By perfect charity
Keep me for ever one with Thine,
For ever one with Thee.
