For God is glorified in man
And to man's glory vowed I soul and limb
Yet, constituted thus, and thus endowed, I failed
I gazed on power till I grew blind...
What wonder if I saw no way to shun despair?
The power I sought seemed God's...
I learned my own deep error;
And what proportion love should hold
With power in man's right constitution;
Always preceding power
And with much power, always, always much more love...
