[Unsavoury all our offerings are]

With all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt. —ii. 13.

Unsavoury all our offerings are,
Till acceptable through Thy Son:
But hear well-pleased our praise and prayer
Presented in His name alone:
The salt we borrow from our Lord,
His meritorious righteousness,
And every deed, and thought, and word
Is season'd now with Jesu's grace.
