In Affectionate Remembrance of Joseph Budge who fell asleep in Jesus June 18th 1887 Aged 69 Years and 9 Months.
I was Wretched, By Sin Defiled
God all my Baseness Knew
But Jesus from His Father came
That he might me Renew
And Praise me from such Depths of Sin
Who had his name Blasphemed:
This me Amazed I can't tell why
He should my Soul Redeem
My Soul Dear Friends His Name both Praise
And shall through Endless Days
Will you Assist me with My song
Tose Hallowed Notes to Raise
