[Millions the Christian name]
Whosoever doth not bear his cross, &c.
—xiv. 27.
Millions the Christian name
Without the cross receive,
Servants of men and slaves of fame
In ease and pleasures live;
Following the world His foe
They throng the spacious road,
Nor will in Jesu's footsteps go
By Calvary to God.

Following the world His foe
They throng the spacious road,
Nor will in Jesu's footsteps go
By Calvary to God.
But better taught by grace
His doctrines I approve,
Cheerful His daily cross embrace,
And all His sufferings love:
With joy I follow Him
Who once for sinners died,
And nothing know, desire, esteem
But Jesus crucified.
