Matthew 26:7: Love as generous as sincere
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Love as generous as sincere,
Not by words but actions proved.
Doth to Jesus minister.
Pours the oil on its Beloved:
Who the use of riches know,
Who a precious Christ esteem.
They their all on Him bestow,
All too mean a gift for Him.
