Matthew 14:4: Grant me that bold simplicity
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Grant me that bold simplicity
Sin in the greatest to reprove,
("Ye must obey my God's decree,
Ye must the cursed thing remove,")
And give me, if my life it cost.
To' exult in life for Jesus lost.
