John: But that the world may know that I love the Father
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Anointed, sent from Him
Saviour, Thou didst fulfil
Thy great commission to redeem.
And do the Father's will;
Hereby Thy heart we know
Who didst our griefs sustain,
And unto death obedient, show
Thy love for God, and man.
