Matthew 20:13, 14: Thee, Lord, I just and faidiful own

Religion

Thee, Lord, I just and faidiful own,
Rewarded for Thy mercy sake,
Happy in God, I envy none
Who of Thy joy widi me partake:
Less than the least of saints I am,
Who less than all. Thy grace improve,
No recompence by merit claim.
And bring no title but Thy love.
