To paths of bliss incline their straying feet,
With heavenly wisdom make their souls replete;
Give them, O God! that source of sacred joy,
That which the changeful world can ne’er destroy:
Enlist them with thy shining saints above,
And bless them here with the Redeemer’s love.
(Maria Frances Cecilia Cowper)
