5 We in the way find all things cheap, Our charges all are born; And other blessings thou dost heap, Rouze up and do not mourn.

6 Ye drooping Souls, you have a Guide Who never will you leave; And will defend you on e'ry side, If unto him you cleave.

8 Cast off your loads, O come away, And sing as you do go; Sing praise to Christ continually, From whence all blessings flow.
