[A guide of souls will not retain]

John calling unto him two of his disciples. —vii. 19.

A guide of souls will not retain,
Or suffer them on him to' attend,

164

But sends them to increase the train
Of Him that did from heaven descend;
His Saviour's humble harbinger,
No party will he call his own,
His only care that souls should hear,
Believe, and hang on Christ alone.
