High upon highlands and low upon Tay Bonnie George Campbell rode out on a day Saddled and bridled, so bonnie to see Home came his good horse, but never came he Saddled and booted and bridled rode he A plume to his helmet, a sword at his knee Home came his saddle all bloody to see Home came his good horse but never came he Down came his mother grievin' full sore Out came his bonnie bride tearing her hair The meadow lies green and my corn is unshorn My barn is to build and my babe is unborn

Broad is the road that leads to death And thousands walk together there But wisdom shows a narrow path With here and there a traveller. 'Deny thyself and take thy cross' Is the redeemer's great command; Nature must count her gold but dross If she would gain this heav'nly land. The fearful soul that tires and faints And walks the ways of God no more Is but esteemed almost a saint And makes his own destruction sure. Lord let not all my hopes be vain, Create my heart entirely new, Which hypocrites could ne'er attain, Which false apostates never knew. Why should we start and fear to die? What tim'rous worms we mortals are! Death is the gate to endless joy And yet we dread to enter there. O if my lord would come and meet, My soul would stretch her wings in haste Fly fearless through death's iron gate, Nor feel the terrors as she passed. Isaac Watts
