FUll of wrath, his threatning breathBelching nought but chains and death,Saul was arrested in his wayBy a voice and a light,That if a thousand daysShould join raysTo beautifie one day,It would not shew so glorious and so bright.On his amazed eyes it night did fling,That day might break within;And by those beams of FaithMake him of a child of wrathBecome a vessel full of glory.Lord, curb us in our dark and sinful way.We humbly pray,When we down horrid precipices runWith seet that thirst to be undone,That this may be our story.
Allelujah.
