Matthew 13: The principle of grace Divine
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
The principle of grace Divine
Sown in this earthly heart of mine.
Is glorious joy, and heavenly peace.
And true implanted righteousness.
Though scarce perceptible the grain
It doth the tree of life contain,
The purity of saints above,
And all the powers of perfect love.
