Religion
Matthew 6:25: Why take ye thought for raiment? Consider, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Who bids the careless lilies grow
My scanty substance can augment,
Sufficiency of food bestow.
And raiment, and therewith content:
Who stoops to clothe a fading flower
Will every needful blessing give.
And fit the creature of an hour
An endless life with Him to live.
