A wreck more fearful yet remains for thee;
Time only bears thee to eternity.
Tread then the path thy bright Exemplar trod;
Think on the day when this vast earth shall be
In bursting flames dissolved—yon skies so broad
Shrink like a shrivelled scroll.—“Prepare to meet thy God.”
Dale.
Prepare me gracious God
To stand before thy face!
Thy spirit must the work perform
