Religion
Matthew 25:29: From him that hath not shall be taken, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Why am I stripp'd of all my power?
My Lord by long neglect I grieved:
I would not use, or strive for more.
And lost by sloth the grace received:
I did not in His knowledge grow.
Or labour after holiness.
And thus I let my pardon go,
And thus I forfeited my peace.
