HYMN 86. God's Word like a Glass
2 Cor. 3.18. But we all with open face beholding as in a glass, &c.
1 How prone are people generally To look into a Glass, But will not look into God's Word To see their woeful case.
1 How prone are people generally To look into a Glass, But will not look into God's VVord To see their woful case.
2 There may they see how foul they be, How loathsome in God's Eyes, Whilst in their sins they do remain, Like Swine in filthy Sties.
2 There may they see how foul they be, How loathsom in God's Eyes, VVhilst in their sins they do remain, Like Swine in filthy Sties.
