John 4:37, 38: The prophets spake of Jesu's grace
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
The prophets spake of Jesu's grace.
The seed immortal sow'd;
The' apostles reap'd the ransom'd race,
And brought a world to God.
The prophets and apostles too
For us the way prepared.
And if their footsteps we pursue
We share their full reward.
