[“So high, so holy, and so great]
How is it that He eateth and drinketh, &c.
—ii. 16.
“So high, so holy, and so great,
Why doth your Lord with sinners eat?
Unfold His strange design:”
A Pharisee inquires in vain;
Faith only can the depth explain
Of charity Divine.

God over all, for ever bless'd,
Whose presence is the heavenly feast,
For us His throne He leaves,
His love the Man of Grief constrains,
And makes Him live with publicans,
And makes Him die with thieves!
Whose presence is the heavenly feast,
For us His throne He leaves,
His love the Man of Grief constrains,
And makes Him live with publicans,
