| 96 Shall mobs always triumph, in spite of the laws?
Oh! no for the prophets have foretold a time, Oh! hasten dear Lord, hasten on that blest day,
(But not till the Ancient of days shall have sit,) My soul will rejoice, should I live till it come;
That saints shall have power, wisdom divine, Prepare Lord thy saints, for the happy era,
The kingdom to take, and then to possess it. That we may be ready, and bid it welcome.
