VI.
Farewell! farewell! our time is spent,We leave thee now in peace;At last thou'rt free and highly blest,May heaven thy joys increase.
Thy dear ones all around thee now,Are bent in tearful prayer;Their grateful words ascend to HimWho brought them safely there.
But we to-day lift up our hearts,And kneel in prayer with thee;We bless the God who broke the chain,And set thy people free.
