Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Shakers of Ohio: Fugitive Papers Concerning the Shakers of Ohio, With Unpublished Manuscripts The Shakers By Richard McNemar. Go search the whole creation, and trace the world around, See if in any nation, a people can be found, Whose doctrine and behavior is honest, just and true, Who live like Christ the Savior; who are the faithful few. To draw the perfect likeness of God´s beloved few, With justice and exactness, is more than I can do: But give me leave to mention those virtues which excel, Which grace the new creation, where God delights to dwell. Upright in all their dealing, and just in ev´ry case - A friendly, tender feeling for all the human race: They follow Christ´s example with all their heart and mind, Like children mild and simple, long suff´ring, meek and kind. In love they are united - They serve the Lord with zeal; While others are invited to share the bliss they feel: Their love cannot be mixed with that which leads to sin, Nor is it solely fixed on self´s beloved kin. An int´rest they inherit, that strangers do not find, A watchful pray´rful spirit, a peaceful humble mind; A thankful heart possessing, to crosses reconcil´d, And this ensures a blessing to ev´ry gospel child. These are the heirs of heaven, and thither they are bound; The likeness here is given, the people can be found; With Christ they are partakers, tho´ form´d of flesh and blood, And you may call them Shakers, these people are of God.
