Matthew 25: Awed by the righteous doom of them
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Awed by the righteous doom of them
That perish through neglect of grace,
The time we labour to redeem,
Yet cannot boast our faithfulness:
If we Thy talents occupy
Useful to man we here may be;
But still, O God, we live and die
Unprofitable all to Thee.
