Gleanings By The Way PDF Download

Excerpt from Gleanings by the Way I ran to many things that were wild, Which God's law does forbid. And when I became a man, I still followed the road of sin, Which led me to the devil's hand; Thus I did my manhood begin. When a child about two or three, My mother did me begin To teach me my A, B, C About He who died to save from sin. But not being a mental scholar, And loving to follow in sinful mirth The devil captured my mind as his fallow, As sin was sown in my nature from my birth. Thus I lived in years of sinful pleasure Until I was about thirty-eight; Drinking in the gall without measure, Until a very few years of late. Now when I am fifty years of age, Not possessing one earthly dollar, I come the truths of the Gospel to engage, Not spending one hour as a mental scholar.
