[Self Thy word would fain diminish]
Ye shall not add unto the word, &c.
—iv. 2.
Self Thy word would fain diminish,
Pride Thy word would fain increase,
But what Thou art pleased to finish
Never can be more or less;
All Thy word without addition
Renders us for glory meet,
Fits us for the blissful vision,
Makes the man of God complete.
