Hebmos v. 4. No man taketh this honour to himself, but he
that is called of God.

Call'd by the Holy Ghost alone
The labourers are call'd by God,
One with the Father and the Son
The Spirit hath their grace bestow'd,
Their ministerial honour given,
And sent the messengers of heaven.

None but the' almighty Spirit can
Set His own officers apart,
His chosen instruments ordain,
And sinners by their word convert,
While taught of Him they testify,
That Spirit is the Lord most high.
