Hymn Context Compare
Is to those who are perishing
Thankless for the bless­ings lent.
God is gra­cious, but know you not,
How great our guilt has been;
I’m only a sinner saved by grace!
With food celestial feedeth.
Jesus is coming again!
Like a crowd of fright­ened sheep?
And brought my wan­der­ing soul to God!
Vainly now for oil ye cry,
May we find grace like Noah in Your eyes.
Without the oil of grace.
And lowly bow.
For wisdom’s sum Thou art;
The wise have abundance of oil,
Like a crowd of fright­ened sheep?
Oh, I feel like dancin'
Our exercise to touch the Lord each day?
But Oh! mine eyes are fixed on Thee.
What shame, that I so proud can be!

Foolish

For it is written, “I will destroy
Vain re­grets for things as vain:
end
And all our lives were sin.
Causing my footsteps from God to depart;
But yet in love He sought me,
When the Lord comes they will learn
From a love so true and deep?
Ere I had felt Thy scourg­es, Lord;
Fast thy speed—when lo! the door
Vessels filled when we go forth to meet Him?
And seek for a sup­ply;
With which my soul was fortified;
Set me henceforth apart,
The wise used their time to buy oil,
From a love so true and deep?
But when the world has seen the light
The evil, slothful slave says, “He delays!”
Lead me a way I have not known;
Filthiness to consider clean,
