[Thy confessor in deed and word]

Whosoever . . . shall confess Me before men, &c. —x. 32.

Thy confessor in deed and word,
Before the sons of men,

240

In all the tempers of my Lord
I would Thy cause maintain:
And if my Lord I thus confess,
Thou wilt Thy servant own,
Present before Thy Father's face,
And place me on Thy throne.
