No hand put forth, His anger tells;
And He, the Omnipotent and Dread,
On high in humblest patience dwells.
The Son hath come; and maddened sin
The world's Creator crucified;
The Spirit comes, and stays, while men,
His presence doubt, His gifts deride.
And now the Father keeps Himself,
In patient and forbearing love,
To be His creature's heritage,
