Matthew 19:17: None is originally good
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
None is originally good.
Good from himself, but Thee:
The good Thou hast on man bestow'd.
Is not his property:
And just (by Thee accounted just)
Himself he cannot call.
But still confesses in the dust
That God is all in all.
6". Matthew xix. ly.
