Matthew 21:24: Jesus, the truth of simple love
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Jesus, the truth of simple love
Refuses a direct reply.
The' ensnaring tempters to reprove.
Whose hearts are naked to His eye.
Their foul hypocrisy to' expose.
And baffle His most crafty foes.
