"~ Our Weakness ~" (903 hits)

We Have Nothing To Glory In But

Our Infirmities An Our Unworthiness,

Since, In That Everlasting Marriage- Union

Thou Hast Made With Us, We Brought With

Us Nothing But Weakness, Sin Misery.



How We Rejoice To Owe All To Thee, And

That Thou Favorest Our Heart With Treasures

And Boundless Riches Of Thy Grace And Love!



Thou Hast Dealt By Us, As If A Magnificent King

Should Marry A Poor Slave, Forget Our Slavery,

Give Us All The Ornaments Which May Render

Our Pleasing In His Eyes, And Freely Pardon

Our All The Faults And Ill Qualities Which Our

Ignorance And Bad Education Had Given Us. . .





Our Poverty Is Become Our Riches, And In

The Extremity Of Our Weakness We Have

Found Our Strength.



- Madame Guyon { 1647- 1717 }
