80. GLORYING IN THE CROSS. [(notes)]
Let it not be, that e'er my soul in aught
Should glory touching on delight or pride,
Save in the wondrous cross of Him, who died
A sacrifice of worth beyond all thought,
With inf'nite blessings to the guilty fraught.
Give me faith's vision—let who will deride—
O blessed Jesus! of thy pierced side:
I boast of thee and what thy love has wrought.
