AMIABLE

"Think on these things" - how amiable He was!
Seeing His grace how many souls were drawn:
Peter could say for Christ he had left all,
While Matthew hastened when answering His call;
The woman slighted the Pharisees' discord
That she might be near her beloved Lord;
And the brave women with the disciple John
Knowing His loveliness stood by the cross.
How amiable He is - the theme of song
Of myriads of souls whom He has bought;
But, more than this, eternity shall vaunt
How amiable Christ Jesus is to God.
