Matthew 4:8: Again, the devil taketh Him

Let not the follower of the Lord
Think all temptation pass'd,
The most severe, and most abhorr'd
May buffet him at last;
Satan, before his warfare end,
The hoary saint may try,
May tempt him to adore the fiend,
To curse his God and die.
39. The devil... sheweth Him all the kingdovis, c. — 'w. 8.
Sin enter'd by the eye, and made
Its way to Adam's heart;
Satan, who thus our sire betray'd,
On Jesus tries his art:
But vain the serpent's hope to move
The Son of God Most High,
Who built those glorious worlds above,
Who fills both earth and sky.
To damn us by our own desires,
Satan the world employs;
With avarice, and ambition fires,
And visionary joys.
By pomp, and state, and pageantry
Allures us to his shrine.
And tells my soul, " Bow down to me
And all my world is thine."
But we a kingdom here receive,
A kingdom from above,
Which only Christ hath power to give,
Which never can remove:
The devil's proffers we disdain.

Who worship Christ alone,
Partakers of His patience reign.
Partakers of His throne.
Who teach their children to admire
The pomp which earth disj lays,
And bid them from their birth aspire
To riches, power, and praise;
They bUndly take the murderer's part,
To him their offspring sell,
Poison their unexperienced heart.
And train them up for hell.
