[Sinners who bewail your dead]

Why make ye this ado, and weep? —v. 39.

Sinners who bewail your dead,
See from whence your sorrows flow:
If from nature they proceed,
Stop the unavailing woe:
490

Happy who in Jesus sleep:
Mourn aright ye noisy crowd,
For yourselves, not others, weep,
Foes to Christ, and dead to God.
