Luke 7:2: The man who Christ hath truly known
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
The man who Christ hath truly known,
His faith by works of mercy proves.
Respects his servant as a son,
In him his heavenly Master loves;
Conscious that God will equal make.
Or crown the slave with brighter stars,
He humbly now for Jesus' sake
His servant to himself prefers.
