Humility

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #276 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Wherefore should man, frail child of clay Lyrics: 1 Wherefore should man, frail child of clay Who, from the cradle to the shroud, Lives but the insect of a day,-- O why should mortal man be proud? 2 His brightest visions just appear, Then vanish, and no ore are found: The stateliest pile his pride can rear, A breath may level with the ground. 3 By doubts perplex'd, in error lost, With trembling step he seeks his way: How vain of wisdom's gift the boast! Of reason's lamp how faint the ray! 4 Follies and crimes, a countless sum, Are crowded in life's little span: How ill, alas, does pride become That erring, guilty creature, man! 5 God of my life! Father divine! Give me a meek and lowly mind; In modest worth O let me shine, And peace in humble virtue find. Topics: The Christain His Duty and Graces; Christian Graces Languages: English
