[God who His creatures' love requires]

Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? —v. 4.

God who His creatures' love requires,
Our only happiness desires,
He claims the whole and not a part,
Not half our goods but all our heart.
My heart, O God, is all Thy due,
Is always naked to Thy view;
And if I love not Thee alone,
I make the' impostor's doom my own.
