[Few on their ministry attend]
Few on their ministry attend
Who preach themselves, not Christ the Lord:
But if our God His Spirit send
And give the dead-reviving word,
When Shiloh doth Himself reveal
To Him the people gather still.
Who preach themselves, not Christ the Lord:
But if our God His Spirit send
And give the dead-reviving word,
When Shiloh doth Himself reveal
To Him the people gather still.
Who preach the genuine word of God,
His presence doth their labours bless,
And while the eager multitude
Doth to the joyful tidings press,
Both minister and people join
In faith, to prove the word Divine.
