John 15:12: Jesus, that new command of Thine
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Jesus, that new command of Thine
I languish to obey:
The zeal of charity Divine
Into my heart convey,
That in and for my God alone
I may embrace, esteem,
And after Thee my life lay down,
The brethren to redeem.
