1624.
[More than a prophet sent by God]
He said, I am the voice of one crying in the, &c.
—i. 23.
More than a prophet sent by God,
Forerunner of the Lord Most-High,
With all Elijah's spirit endued
Himself he doth not magnify,
But while Messiah he proclaims,
Himself a voice, a nothing, names.
Forerunner of the Lord Most-High,
With all Elijah's spirit endued
Himself he doth not magnify,
But while Messiah he proclaims,
Himself a voice, a nothing, names.
Full of the greatness of his Lord,
Himself he studies to abase,
Let Jesus be alone adored,
Object of universal praise,
Proprietor of all esteem,
Bow all in earth and heaven to Him.
