Watch (and be faithful every hour) for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. Matthew 24:42.

A christian hath two watchful eyes; with one, he looks always upon himself as a sinner, with the other he looks upon Christ as being without sin in him. These things must be watched evermore, for as soon as we turn our eyes off, and look upon others, or our own gifts, either pride or despair will follow; both which is very dangerous in the last hour.

Death! ’tis a melancholy day
To those that have no God,
When the poor soul is forced away
To seek her last abode.

In vain to heaven she lifts her eyes;
But guilt, a heavy chain,
Still drags her downward from the skies,
To darkness, fire, and pain.

Awake and mourn, ye heirs of hell;
Let stubborn sinners fear;
You must be driven from earth, and dwell
A long FOR EVER there.

See how the pit gapes wide for you,
And flashes in your face:
And thou, my soul look downwards too,
And sing recovering grace.
