Religion
Matthew 27: Men would charm it or remove
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Men would charm it or remove,
To their pain insensible:
Saints who Jesus' sutferings love,
All their own consent to feel.
Calmly fill their measure up,
Sure that all their griefs are His,
Drink His passion's deepest cup,
Die with Him in perfect peace.
