Lord, may our sympathizing breasts
Thy generous pleasure know,
Kindly to share in others’ joys,
And weep for others’ woe!
Where’er the helpless sons of grief
In low distress are laid,
Soft be our hearts, their pains to feel,
And swift our hands to aid.
Thus may the sacred law of love
Through all our actions shine,
And force a scoffing world to own
The Christian name divine.
