Matthew 21:33: The Householder in Canaan's land
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
The Householder in Canaan's land
Planted a church, and hedged it round,
His law and providential hand
Was then its sure protection found:
The winepress digg'd where Salem stood,
The temple was their boasted tower,
The husbandmen were hired of God
Who left His vineyard in their power.
