Religion
1 Timothy 1:5: The end of the commandment is charity
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Religion
Love, only love Thy law fulfils,
And doth whate'er its Author wills;
Breathe it into my heart, and I
Shall with Thy perfect will comply,
While all my words and actions prove
The end of the command is love.
