Matthew 10:34: Think not that I am co??ie to send peace on, Cffc
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Not to indulge our sloth and ease.
Not to confirm our worldly peace,
Didst Thou on earth appear.
But that we might Thy kingdom know.
And find, cut off from all below,
The Lord our portion here.
Thou kindly camest to stand between,
To separate us from sinful men.
Us from our selves to part,
That rescued by Thy Spirit's power
Thy saints may cleave to earth no more,
But give Thee all their heart.
