William CowperGod moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform. He plants his footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm.
William CowperThe parable of the prodigal son, the most beautiful fiction that ever was invented; our Saviour's speech to His disciples, with which He closed His earthly ministrations, full of the sublimest dignity and tenderest affection, surpass everything that I ever read; and like the spirit by which they were dictated, fly directly to the heart.
William Cowper
