51 C. M.
1 THE blessings of the bounteous God
JL Are strewed o'er heaven and earth ; The dawning morn, the dewy sod, Declare their daily birth.
2 Fountains of purity and peace
From every hill descend; God gives us springs that never cease, And joys that never end.
3 Tread the sweet margin of yon stream,
Its flowing crystal see— Bland are its waters as they seem, And charged with health for thee.
52 C. M.
1 O 'TIS a joyful sound to hear
Our men devoutly say, Come let us all to temperance haste, Not one must stay away.
2 There many weeping wives shall see
Returning hours of peace ; And many husbands there shall find Corroding sorrows cease.
3 We'll banish far the mad'ning drink,
And temperance extend; While gospel truths shall thro' the land Their endless blessings send.
4 O pray we all our country's peace,
May temperance wield its sway, While high the gospel banners float, And all its God obey.
