Religion
Matthew 13:5: Other fell into good ground, and brought, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
The heart of man, the ground accursed
No difference knows of best or worst,
O'errun with nature's thorns and briars,
Fit fuel of infernal fires:
His only grace can make it good,
Who dearly bought it with His blood;
And if my heart be fertile ground,
The fruit to Jesus' praise is found.
