Mark 4:22: Truth never shuns the light
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Truth never shuns the light,
The light it loves and spreads:
But well the conscious sons of night
May hide their wicked deeds —
Till that eternal day
Their works and hearts reveal.
And all the secret good display
Which humble saints conceal.
