[Who live to sin, are all but theeves to heavē]
Who live to sin, are all but theeves to heavē
And Earth; They steale frō God, & take ungivē,
Good men they rob, & such as live upright,
And (being bastards) share the freemans Right:
They're all as owners, in the owners stead,
And (like to Dogs) devoure the childrens bread;
They have, and Iacke, and want that they possesse,
Vnhappy most, in their most happinesse:
They are not goods, but riches, that they wast,
And not be'ng goods, to ev'ls they turne at last.
And Earth; They steale frō God, & take ungivē,
Good men they rob, & such as live upright,
And (being bastards) share the freemans Right:
They're all as owners, in the owners stead,
And (like to Dogs) devoure the childrens bread;
They have, and Iacke, and want that they possesse,
Vnhappy most, in their most happinesse:
They are not goods, but riches, that they wast,
And not be'ng goods, to ev'ls they turne at last.
(Lord) what I have, let me enjoy in thee,
And thee in it, or else take it from mee;
My store or want, make thou, or fade, or flourish,
So shall my comforts neither change, nor perish;
That little I enjoy, (Lord) make it mine,
In making mee (that am a Sinner) thine;
'Tis thou or none, that shall supply my need,
Great God, Give us this day our daily bread.
And thee in it, or else take it from mee;
My store or want, make thou, or fade, or flourish,
So shall my comforts neither change, nor perish;
That little I enjoy, (Lord) make it mine,
In making mee (that am a Sinner) thine;
'Tis thou or none, that shall supply my need,
Great God, Give us this day our daily bread.
