6 And as a Hen does cluck and call According to her kind, Thereby to save her Chickens all From Kites, which she does find
7 Do often of them make a prey, So dost thou call and cry To Sinners, whilst it is to day, Whom thou dost, Lord, espy
8 To be in danger by their sin And Devils many ways; Nay, thou dost call and call again Full oft, for many days.
8 To be in danger by their sin And Devils many ways; Nay, thou dost call and call agen Full ost, for many days.
The Second Part. 1 The Hen stands ready and prepared, Hovering her mournful wings, And never is she satisfied Till under them she brings: 2 So thou dost spread thy Arms, O Lord, Poor Sinners to bring in, And bids the weary come to thee Who laden are with sin. 3 O then come in the Sinners all Under Christ's wings with speed, He will receive you great and small, And nothing shall you need.
