Matthew 26:75: See, the sad fruit of sin appears
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
See, the sad fruit of sin appears.
While Peter weeps a briny flood!
But that which costs the servant tears
Must cost the Lord His richest blood!
The sea of tears which Peter sheds
Can never purge his crimson sin,
But Jesus for the sinner pleads.
And pours His blood to make him clean.
