THE FUTURE HOPE OF THE NEGRO.

[“Jesus, I my cross have taken]

“Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave, and follow thee;
Naked, poor, despised, forsaken,
Thou from hence my all shall be.”

[“How can I sink with such a prop]

“How can I sink with such a prop
As my eternal God;
Who bears the earth's huge pillars up,
And spreads the heavens abroad?”
318

[“Jesus shall reign where'er the sun]

“Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does his successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.”
