We have to work and serve humanity while we have the grace.

About This Quote

In this quote, the poet William Blake is saying that we have to work and serve humanity while we have the grace. Grace is a gift from God that gives us what we need to be able to work and serve humanity. Blake says grace is a gift from God, but he’s also not naïve about the fact that we can lose it. For Blake, it’s a very real possibility that people will not live up to their potential or will not perform their duties as best as they can.

In those cases, it’s very important for people to have grace because it’s the only thing that will allow them to do their jobs. Without it, people will stop doing their jobs, which is not good for anyone.
