Luke 22:6, 281: God and the multitude
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
God and the multitude
His sacred labours share,
His day is spent in active good,
His night in fervent prayer.
Before the rising morn
He comes his flock to feed,'
His flock with hungry hearts return,
And seek their daily bread:
Their love and earnestness
The pastor's zeal improve,
The pastor's zeal doth more increase
Their earnestness and love.
