Religion
Matthew 7:5: While faults in others I reprove
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
While faults in others I reprove,
If my own sins I cloak and love,
I may with self-importance swell,
And boast the bold reformer's zeal;
But God denominates me aright
A blind, censorious hypocrite.
