[If the chief of saints confess]

The latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy, &c. —iii. 16.

If the chief of saints confess
In the presence of their Lord
All their own unworthiness,
Self-abased and self-abhorr'd,
Fear His smiling eye to meet,
Blush and tremble at His feet;
How shall I, a sinner, dare
To my God for mercy cry,
How present my soul in prayer
If He did not draw me nigh,
Did not feel my misery,
Did not pray Himself in me?
