Religion
Acts 4:5, 6: Power, wisdom, learning all combine
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Power, wisdom, learning all combine,
Churchmen and seculars agree
To frustrate, Lord, Thy love's design,
And stop the men sent forth by Thee:
But lo, by all the world forsook,
Like those who first Thy grace made known,
With stronger confidence we look
For promised help to Thee alone.
