Matthew 27:20: Pastors corrupt their flocks induce
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Pastors corrupt their flocks induce
Sin before Jesus to prefer,
The world before their God to choose,
Riches before a life of prayer,
Pleasure to ask and sensual joy,
And the true life of Christ destroy.
