John 3:23, 24: Happy those who labour on
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Happy those who labour on
For God with all their power,
Labour till their course is run,
And they can work no more:
Happier, when their toils are pass'd,
If liberty they sacrifice.
Offering up their lives at last
To win the martyr's prize.
