2. Let the transplanted English vine
Spread further still: still call it Thine
Prune it with Skill: for yield it can
More Fruit to Thee the Husbandman.
3. Give the poor Indians eyes to See
The Light of Life: and set them free;
That they Religion may profess,
Denying all Ungodliness |
4. So false Religions shall decay,
And Darkness fly before bright Day:
So Men shall God in Christ adore;
And worship Idols vain, no more.
5. So Asia, and Africa,
Europa, with America;
All Four in Consort joined shall Sing
The Songs of Praise to Christ the King. |
