[Who to the Holy Spirit lied]

Why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost? Acts v. 3.

Thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. Ibid. 4.

Who to the Holy Spirit lied,
He lied to God, and not to men;
To God that doth in saints reside,
Not in proud infidels profane,
Who His Divinity blaspheme,
And lie against their God supreme.
But we have by His unction known
The truth which only God reveals:
There is no other God but One,
Who in us by His Spirit dwells,

251

And teaches all His witnesses
One God in persons three to praise.
