Away ye sins, away ye sins; how can I defile myself with you again? And then you would desire to practise all his will, and say, "For the love I bear his name no duty shall be too difficult, no command too severe." There are none that love God like those who are saved by grace. The man who thinks to save himself by works does not love God at all ; he loves himself; he is a servant working for wages, and that is the kind of servant who would turn to another master tomorrow if he could get better paid, and if the wages do not suit him he will strike. The old-fashioned servants were the best servants in the world, for they loved their masters, and if paid no wages at all would have stuck to the family for love's sake. Such are the servants of God who are saved by his grace. "Why," say they, "he has already pardoned me and saved me, and therefore my ear is bored and fastened to the door of his house to be his servant for ever; and my glory is, 'I am thy servant, I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid, thou hast loosed my bonds.'"
