LOVE AND GRATITUDE
334
In the way the fathers trod:                         On the borders of your land;
They are happy now, and we                       Jesus Christ, your Father's Son,
Soon their happiness Shall see.                     Bids you undismayed go on.
3 Shout, ye little flock, and blest,                5 Lord, obediently we go,
You on Jesus' throne shall rest;                  Gladly leaving all below;
There your seat is now prepared,                 Only Thou our leader be,
There your kingdom and reward.                 And we still will follow Thee.
Rev. John Cennick, 174*

2  With a childlike heart of love, At Thy bidding may I move; Prompt to serve and follow Thee, Loving Him who first loved me.
3  Teach me all Thy steps to trace, Strong to follow in Thy grace; Learning how to love from Thee,
r Loving Him who first loved me.
4  Love in loving finds employ — In obedience all her joy: Ever new that joy will be, Loving Him who first loved me.
5  Thus may I rejoice to show That I feel the love I owe; Singing, till Thy face I see,
Of His love who first loved me.
Janb £. Leeson, 1842
