[Poor Agrippa! but almost]

Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost, &c. —xxvi. 28.

Poor Agrippa! but almost
Persuaded to embrace
Him who saves the sinner lost,
And offers all His grace!
Grace and Christ almost to gain
Is quite to miss the deathless prize;
Take another step—and then
Thy soul's in paradise.
Partner of the heavenly hope,
In the good work begun
Do not with Agrippa stop,
But now with Paul go on:
Full consent to Jesus yield,
With all thy heart to Jesus given,
His, entirely His, and fill'd
With the pure life of heaven.
