Luke 7:20: One only thing we ask to know
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
One only thing we ask to know,
But one which everything contains,
Art Thou the Man that dwelt below.
That died to purge our sinful stains?
Assure my heart, if Thou art He,
My King, my Prophet and my Priest,
My God who gave Himself for me —
I '11 trust Thy love for all the rest.
