Religion
Exodus 34:34: Will a meek, modest man of God
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Will a meek, modest man of God
Rejoice to make the fairest show.
Expose his graces to the crowd.
And charm the dazzled world below?
Or rather take with jealous fear
The veil of true humility,
And glorious as he is appear
To none but that all-seeing Eye? J
