First Line: Within my earthly temple there'sa crowd
Last Line: If I could once determine which is me
Subject(s): Self
Within my earthly temple there's a crowd:
There's one of us that's humble, one that's proud,
There's one that's broken-hearted for his sins,
And one that unrepentant sits and grins,
There's one that loves his neighbor as himself,
And one that cares for naught but fame and pelf.
From much perplexing care I would be free
If I could once determine which is Me!
