You read of me often in God’s holy Word,
But the name I was known by was changed by the Lord.
My first is in bushel (No light should be hid!);
It’s also in fishing, which sometimes I did.
My second’s in seaside as well as in hill;
My third is in mother (My wife’s became ill!)
My fourth is in money, and also in fold;
My last is in golden, but never in gold. (John 1)
