2 In every case the Law has all It can desire to have, And Justice says she never shall More of Believers crave:
3 It suits so well in each degree, And Saints also do find It suits them so, nothing can be Exacter to their mind:
4 For it does with God's wisdom suit, And clothes our souls and heart; And hides all our deformities, Nay covers every part,
4 For it does with God's wisdom suit, And cloaths our souls and heart; And hides all our deformities, Nay covers every part,
5 From head to foot, so that such seem To have no spot at all; It gloriously does fit all them, Be they great ones or small.
