Nearer to Thee--

That raiseth me;
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Mis-define thee, till God knows them no more.

by his spirit, his is a base and ignoble creature.

Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of
Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.
For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar
with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye
ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound
the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to
confound the things which are mighty;
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath
God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought
things that are:
That no flesh should glory in his presence.

watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
