Verse 1
Foolish, ignorant, and blind
Is sinful, short-liv’d man,
All which in the world we find
Is perishing and vain,
Man must quickly turn to dust,
The world will be destroy’d by fire;
Who would then on either trust
Or dotingly admire?
Verse 2
God is good, and great alone,
In wisdom infinite:
Let us render him his own,
And still in God delight,
Fix on him our trust, and choice,
And sing, and wonder, and adore,
In his holy will rejoice,
And triumph evermore.
