50.

[Happy the soul who casts behind]

They straightway left their nets, and followed Him. —iv. 20.

Happy the soul who casts behind
The world and its entangling snares!
By simple faith to Jesus join'd
He only for his Master cares:
Whate'er he for his Master leaves,
Whether his stock be large or small,
A grateful sacrifice he gives,
And much forsakes, who quits his all.
