Religion
Luke 2:22: Lord of all, with pure intent
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Lord of all, with pure intent
From his tenderest infancy
In Thy temple I present
Whom I first received from Thee:
Through Thy well-beloved Son,
Mine acknowledge for Thine own,
Seal'd with the baptismal seal,
Purchased with the' atoning blood,
Jesus in my infant dwell.
Make his heart the house of God,
Fill Thy consecrated shrine,
Father, Son, and Spirit Divine.
