Matthew 25:37: Want that unreflecting love
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Want that unreflecting love
Which simply Thy command obeys,
(Content, if Thou at last approve,)
Nor fondly on the action stays:
Still would I my own good forget,
Which is not, gracious Lord, my own,
Till Thou Thy servant's works repeat.
And praise me for what grace had done.
