True Faith it's own Assurance.

A Reflection on 2 Tim. i. 12.

I know in whom I have, thro' grace, believ'd;
What I have found, and what by faith receiv'd;
I know in whom my glory shall confide,
Whose shade shall cover, and his covert hide.
I know on whom my weakness may depend,
Who loves his own, and loves them to the end.
I know his voice, the shepherd to his sheep,
Who feeds his flock, and will as faithful keep.
I know who will, thro' life, their labours own,
And seal in death their everlasting crown!
