SECOND DEVOTIONAL SONG.
Our heavenly Father sent His Son
From hateful sin to save us,
And precious blessings many a one,
Health, friends, and freedom gave us.
From hateful sin to save us,
And precious blessings many a one,
Health, friends, and freedom gave us.
And all we see, each beauteous sight,
The woods, the fields, the ocean,
The sun by day, the moon by night,
Should fill us with devotion.
The woods, the fields, the ocean,
The sun by day, the moon by night,
Should fill us with devotion.
Then let our praises be express'd
In light and lively measure,
He loves the grateful homage best
That is bestow'd with pleasure!
In light and lively measure,
He loves the grateful homage best
That is bestow'd with pleasure!
