“ With transport then their Savior's care And favor they shall prove; As tender parents guard and spare The children of their love. Assembled worlds will then discern The saints alone are blest; When wrath shall like an oven burn, And vengeance strike the rest. ”

“ When sinners utter boasting words, And glory in their shame; The LORD, well-pleased, an ear affords To those who fear his name. They often meet to seek his face, And what they do, or say, Is noted in his book of grace Against another day. ”
