Oh! How Great And Glorious

If A Man Serves Not God Only, Then Surely He Serves The Devil.

For What God Gives I Thank Indeed; What He Withholds I Do Not Need

It Is The Duty Of A Prudent Minister Of God To Hold His Ministry In Honor And To See To It That It Is Respected By Those Who Are In His Charge. Moreoever, It Is The Duty Of A Faithful Minister Not To Exceed His Powers And Not To Abuse His Office In Pride, But, Rather, To Administer It For The Benefit Of His Subjects.

This Is That Mystery Which Is Rich In Divine Grace Unto Sinners: Wherein By A Wonderful Exchange, Our Sins Are No Longer Ours But Christ's; And The Righteousness Of Christ Is Not Christ's But Ours. He Has Emptied Himself Of His Righteousness That He Might Clothe Us In It, And Fill Us With It: And He Has Taken Our Evils Upon Himself That He Might Deliver Us From Them.

I Am Not Of The Opinion That All The Arts Shall Be Crushed To Earth And Perish Through The Gospel, As Some Bigoted Persons Pretend, But Would Willingly See Them All, And Especially Music, Servants Of Him Who Gave And Created Them.
