-Shall the vile race of flesh and blood
-Contend with their Creator God?
-Shall mortal worms presume to be
-More holy, wise, or just than He?
-Behold, He puts his trust in none
-Of all the spirits round his throne:
-Their natures, when compared with His,
-Are neither holy, just, nor wise.
-From night to day, from day to night,
-We die by thousands in Thy sight;
-Buried in dust whole nations lie
-Like a forgotten vanity.
-Almighty God, to Thee we bow;
-How frail are we, how glorious Thou!
-No more the sons of earth shall dare
-With an eternal God compare.
