XI.—Heaven and Hell.
1There is beyond the sky,
a heaven of joy and love;
And holy children when they die,
go to that world above.
2There is a dreadful hell,
and everlasting pains,
Where sinners must with devils dwell,
in darkness, fire, and chains.
3Can such a wretch as I
escape this cursed end?
And may I hope whene'er I die,
I shall to heaven ascend?
4Then will I read and pray,
while I have life and breath,
Lest I should be cut off to-day,
and sent t' eternal death.
