| - | |
| Your pastor's fame first got abroad | B |
| By his success on Culloden Road | C |
| He filled the church so that the fold | D |
| No longer it the flock would hold | D |
| But soon a larger church did rise | E |
| With fine neat tower points to the skies | E |
| When you o'erwhelmed with ruin dire | F |
| Did lose your parsonage by fire | G |
| - | |
| To his call with generous bounty | H |

| And 'tis a fact there's very few | L |
| With him can stick of timber hew | L |
| Ready for to superintend | H |
| Or a helping hand to lend | H |
| When bold man's wanted at the front | H |
| You've but to call on Reverend Hunt | H |
| In pulpit he conviction darts | M |
| And points the way to troubled hearts | M |
| But solemn thoughts we won't employ | N |
| As this is all a scene of joy | N |
| Maids and matrons all charming | O |
| Do grace this pleasant house warming | O |
| Here people come from near and far | P |
| To purchase goods at this bazar | P |
| And all is happiness and glee | H |
| At festival of this soiree | Q |
