THE REWARD OF CHRISTIAN BENEVOLENCE.
Remove the seal from thy compassion's spring,And let the water for the pilgrims flow
Of the world's waste, the sons of want and woe!
Though their exhausted frame affliction wring;
And hunger, thirst, and nakedness, the sting
Of sharp disease, and bitter bonds they know;
They are the “brethren,” he to call them so
Vouchsafes, the brethren of thy Lord and King.
A day shall come, when thou before his throne
Those sons of woe with lively thoughts must see
Of joy or anguish. Then shall far be shewn
The alms in secret done; and publickly
A voice proclaim, “Each act of mercy, done
To these my brethren, has been done to me.”
