| The kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. (Matt. 13:44) |
| Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned. (Song of Sol. 8:7) |
The Son — He left God’s throne above
(So free, so infinite His grace!),
Emptied Himself, and then in love
Bled for our lost, our ruined race:
’Tis mercy, all beyond our thought,
That us to God in Jesus brought. |
