Benediction,
Rev Talmaae
'Tis Thine alone. Almighty Name
To raise the dead to life.
The last inebriate to reclaim
From passion s fearful strife.
What ruin hath intemperance,
wrought
How widely roll its waves
How many myriads hath it bought
To fill dishonored graves.
And see. O Lord, what numbers still
Are maddened by the bowl
l.ed captaive by the tyrant s will
In bondage, heart and soul.
Stretch forth thy hand. O God. our
King.
And break the galling chain.
Deliverance to the captive bring.
And end the usurpers reign.
