Above: A Picture of Isaac Watts from the 1903 Book Studies of Familiar Hymns by Louis F. Benson, D.D. (The Westminster Press, Philidelphia).

No more let sin and sorrow grow, Nor thorns infest the

ground; He comes to make His blessings flow Far

as the curse is found, Far as the curse is

found, Far as, far as the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations

prove The glories of His righteousness, And

wonders of His love, And wonders of His

love, And wonders, wonders of His love.
