Clad in the robe of righteousness, which He,
The Saviour, graciously hath lent to hide
The foul and leprous taint of guilt. O grant
That His reward may rescue me from death!
Egone.
RICHES.
Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.
Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.—Proverbs, xxiii. 4, 5.
How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God.—Mark, x. 23.
