[Worldlings in vain the truth approve]

He . . . that received seed among the thorns is, &c. —xiii. 22.

Worldlings in vain the truth approve,
Who seek their rest and comforts here,
Who pleasure, praise, or riches love,
They cannot keep the godly fear,
Or faith in gracious acts express,
Or bear the fruits of righteousness.
