Dost treat with scorn, though soon to join the dead?

Pause in thy guilty path:—consider well—

God's wrathful flood may plunge thee down to hell!

99. JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH.

How can a sinning man with God be just?

This grand inquiry all men need to make,

For all are guilty; and they well may quake

For flagrant evil deeds or secret lust,

For which God's law smites down their prideful trust.
