Dost thou a teasure chest HERE own?
HOW canst thou scorn...."They ALL have HIM!"?
Dost thou desire more than HE is?
WHERE dost thou wish to take thy rest?
Dost thou not know He had NO bed?
WHO dost thou think could satisfy?
Dost thou not know Christ is thy Life?
WHEN wilt thou toss these vanities?
Dost not thou wish but HIM to please?
