NO COMING TO GOD WITHOUT CHRIST by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: GOOD AND GREAT GOD! HOW SHO'D I FEARE
Last Line: WO'D SEE THY FACE, AND HE NOT BY.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST; RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

Good and great God! How sho'd I feare
To come to Thee, if Christ not there!
Co'd I but think, He would not be
Present, to plead my cause for me;
To Hell I'd rather run, then I
Wo'd see Thy Face, and He not by.
