Mourn for the Thousands Slain WATCHMAN—James Leach BOYLSTON—Lowell Mason Mourn for the Thousands Slain 1 Mourn for the thousands slain, The youthful and the strong; Mourn for the wine-cup’s fearful reign, And the deluded throng. 2 Mourn for the lost, but call, Call to the strong, the free; Rouse them to shun that dreadful fall, And to the refuge flee. 3 Mourn for the lost, but pray, Pray to our God above, To break the fell destroyer’s sway, And show his saving love.
