God delights to clothe with beauty
That which He has called to life.
Profusion of colours, forms of fashion,
Each appropriate to its place.
Be not found naked,
Naked as Adam, who hid from God.
Whom God then clothed by His provision,
A life for a cover to hide men's shame.
We learn in life to put on raiment, children clothed with shining light,
Putting on Christ, garments of grace,
to fit us for the holy place.
