Luke 16:9: Help us to make the poor our friends
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Help us to make the poor our friends.
By that which paves the way to hell,
That when our loving labour ends.
And dying from this earth we fail,
Our friends may greet us in the skies
Born to a life that never dies.
