THE KING'S FAVOURITES.
9,9,4,10
Solche Leute will der König küssen
Nicolaus von Zinzendorf
trans. by Catherine Winkworth, 1869
|
Such the King will stoop to and embrace,
Who when they no hope or path can trace,
Sink at His feet,
And grace and guidance from His hand entreat.
|
|
Such the King with blessing will secure,
Who when they behold one scorned and poor,
Who is Christ's own,
Revere him more than princes on a throne.
|
|
Such the King will evermore defend,
Who accept the burden He doth send,
And calmly sit,
Trusting to Him to raise it when 'tis fit.
|
|
311
Such the King will ever deign to teach,
Who can profit e'en by children's speech,
And gladly know
That they are only learners here below.
