Matthew 2:13: Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Who Herod did of old inspire,
Doth still inspire his sons
With aim malicious to inquire
"Where are the perfect ones?"
Suffice that known to God they are.
Nor will themselves proclaim,
Kept ever, watching unto prayer
And hid in Jesus' name.
