Bitter roots springing up,
will many defile...
Thru unforgiving thoughts,
does satan beguile!
After a time, therefore,
do they become vile.
Continuing this rage,
they’ll of others revile...
Yet stand without excuse,
before HIM, on trial!

BUT GOD, knowing sin’s wages,
delays awhile...
Wanting none perish and,
that ALL reconcile!
