Additional quotes by Isaac Watts

Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were an offering far too small
Love so amazing so divine
Demands my soul my life my all

But, children, you should never let
Such angry passions rise;
Your little hands were never made
To tear each other's eyes.

How shall polluted mortals dare
To sing Thy glory or Thy grace
Beneath Thy feet we lie afar
And see but shadows of Thy face.

O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home. - Isaac Watts
