But the gospel word condems them
Shows a meek & lowly way
Travelers few but Christ defends them
While they strive to watch & pray

Thes though few are bound for heaven
Self denying humble low
Knowing all their sins forgiven
Persecuted here below

Lord the number keep increasing
Though the beast may rage & war
And thy Kingdom without ceasing
Grow & spread from shore to shore

Hireling priests are sore tormented
for their craft in danger stands
Every plot has been invented
To uphold their popish plans
