[Not to surprise our Lord intends]
Elias truly shall first come, and restore all, &c.
—xvii. 11.
Not to surprise our Lord intends,
But waken those to whom He sends,
And every gospel-harbinger
Should sinners for His grace prepare:
Repent, as charged by Him they say,
Repent, and find the living Way,
Lay down your arms, to Christ submit,
And gasp for mercy at His feet.
