The Psalms And Hymns Of Isaac Watts by Isaac Watts

HYMN 131 The Pharisee and publican. Luke 18:10ff.

L. M.

The Pharisee and publican. Luke 18:10ff.

Behold how sinners disagree,

The publican and Pharisee!

One doth his righteousness proclaim,

The other owns his guilt and shame.

This man at humble distance stands,

And cries for grace with lifted hands

That boldly rises near the throne,

And talks of duties he has done.

The Lord their diff'rent language knows,

And diff'rent answers he bestows;

The humble soul with grace he crowns,

Whilst on the proud his anger frowns.

Dear Father! let me never be

Joined with the boasting Pharisee;

I have no merits of my own

But plead the suff'rings of thy Son.
