[Who would not quit his sins for Thee]

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord. —i. 18.

Who would not quit his sins for Thee,
Who would not, Lord, believe,
If such Thy cogent reason be,
“Come, for I will forgive”?

373

Thy reason shall the world convince,
When they Thy reason know,
And purge them from their crimson sins,
And make them saints below.
