Break Every Yoke.

159

Tune — " O no, we never mention her."

Break every yoke, the Gospel cries,
And let th' oppressed go free,
Let every captive taste the joys
Of peace and liberty.

Lord, when shall man thy voice obey,
And rend each iron chain,
Oh when shall love its golden sway,
O'erall the earth maintain.

Send thy good Spirit from above,
And melt th' oppressor's heart,
Send sweet deliv'rance to the slave,
And bid his woes depart.

With freedom's blessings crown his day —
O'erflow his heart with love,
Teach him that straight and narrow way,
Which leads to rest above.
