Valley Scharping’s poem in reflection on this sermon:
All Men Presume or Persevere
Can I presume upon Thy pardon?—
So assume your patient grace
And thus my heart to harden?
For in so doing I’d erase
The very Word to which I hearken:
The cause for me to hearten.Perseverance proves it then:
It’s God in ev’ry man and case
Who gives their share and ten
Of heart and faith and shining face!
He also gives their truest tears
For which He faithful nears.All that’s owed me is my shame,
Your “debt” to me, for which I brace,
Is death in endless flame—
Now is gone without a trace!
Yea, you’ve made me strong at length,
You, my only strength.
