Religion
Matthew 19:21: Holy, Thou know'st, I fain would be
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Holy, Thou know'st, I fain would be,
I languish to sell all for Thee;
And when the power is given,
Of self annihilating love,
I shall triumphantly remove
To find my wealth in heaven.
