Or ask ye now as ye have asked of yore, Oh wonder rather that phlegmatic hearts, Wonder-that traitors wooed by sovereign grace This is my friend, Enquiring daughters! human nature's friend, And then on His own warrant, (p) charter, oath, (q) (g) John iii. 31. (p) John xv. 14. (h) Phil. ii. 21. (i) John vi. 66, (m) 1 Pet. ii. 7. (0) Matt. x. 37-39; Luke xiv. 26. (9) Isa. xiv. 24; John vi. 37-40. You too shall say, this Jesus is my friend, To share His friendship, for, "There yet is room! " (r) Luke xiv. 23. "OH! bless our God, ye people! and make the voice of His praise to be heard, which holdeth our soul in life and suffereth not our feet to be moved. . . . . Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what He hath done for my soul."PSALM lxvi. 8, 9, 16. ; "In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment; lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day."—ISAIAH XXVii. 2, 3. |
