Religion
Acts 17:1: When the jews... had knowledge that the, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
O how restless is the foe
Jesus' kingdom to o'erthrow!
FilA'd with diabolic zeal,
All the messengers of hell
Labour on and never cease
True religion to suppress.
Shall not we as zealous prove
Publishers of Jesu's love,
Spread the savour of His grace,
Scatter life in every place,
Dare the world's and Satan's frown,
Turn his kingdom upside down?
