Religion
Luke 22:2: Fear for a moment may withhold
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Fear for a moment may withhold.
And curb the man to evil sold;
But if a stronger passion rise.
He every consequence defies,
And nature all restraint disdains,
And sin and Satan take the reins.
