The Fathers Glory, and on High does mount,
Is made by many but of small account;
'Tis that that carries our Desires to God,
'Tis that that carrys our Desires to God,
And comes down freighted with a blessed Load
And comes down fraighted with a blessed Load
Of sweet Returns; yet 'tis much disrespected,
And Closet-Duty too too much neglected.
