874. [The flesh against the Spirit lusts]

Under the shadow of Thy wings shall be, &c. —lvii. 1.

The flesh against the Spirit lusts,
But, while it strives to tyrannize,
My soul in Love almighty trusts,
My faithful soul on Christ relies,
Till this intestine war is o'er,
And sin destroy'd can tempt no more.
