-Broad is the road that leads to death,
-And thousands walk together there;
-But wisdom shows a narrower path,
-With here and there a traveller.
-"Deny thyself, and take thy cross,"
-Is the Redeemer's great command;
-Nature must count her gold but dross,
-If she would gain this heav'nly land.
-The fearful soul that tires and faints,
-And walks the ways of God no more,
-Is but esteemed almost a saint,
-And makes his own destruction sure.
-Lord, let not all my hopes be vain
-Create my heart entirely new;
-Which hypocrites could ne'er attain,
-Which false apostates never knew.}}
