[Happy His faithful worshippers]

There followed Him a great company, &c. —xxiii. 27.

Happy His faithful worshippers,
The women with lamenting tears,
And sympathising cries,
Who follow that incarnate God,
That Isaac laden with the wood
Of His own sacrifice.
They see their meek expiring Lord,
His kindest, last, instructive word
Into their hearts receive;
They stand to catch His parting breath,
And hear the Saviour gasp in death
“Father the world forgive!”
