Страница 31 - Could I be cast where Thou art not, That were indeed a dreadful lot ; But regions none remote I call, Secure of finding God in all.
Страница 89 - I" LOVE my God, but with no love of mine, •*• For I have none to give ; I love thee, Lord, but all the love is thine, For by thy life I live ; I am as nothing, and rejoice to be Emptied, and lost, and swallow'd up in thee.

Страница 38 - To take the impression of a will divine, Be that thy glory, and those riches thine. Confess him righteous in his just decrees, Love what he loves, and let his pleasure please ; Die daily ; from the touch of sin recede ; Then thou hast crowned him, and he reigns indeed.
Страница 32 - No gloomy days arise from them. Ah then ! to His embrace repair ; My soul, thou art no stranger there ; There Love divine shall be thy guard, And peace and safety thy reward.
