[No; the rich in faith who most]
But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest, &c.
—xxv. 9.
No; the rich in faith who most
Of Jesus' grace possess,
Chief of saints they dare not boast
Superfluous holiness;
All they can in life obtain
Will barely for themselves suffice,
Meet at last through Christ to gain
A mansion in the skies.
Of Jesus' grace possess,
Chief of saints they dare not boast
Superfluous holiness;
All they can in life obtain
Will barely for themselves suffice,
Meet at last through Christ to gain
A mansion in the skies.
What would dying sinners give
To purchase charity!
Sinners when ye cease to live
On earth it cannot be;
Whither will ye turn at last,
Or which of all the saints implore?
Now your gracious day is pass'd,
And time is now no more.
To purchase charity!
Sinners when ye cease to live
On earth it cannot be;
Whither will ye turn at last,
Or which of all the saints implore?
Now your gracious day is pass'd,
And time is now no more.
