Religion
1 Timothy 6:10: The love of money is the root of all evil
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Religion
Is that cursed root in me
From whence all evils grow?
Thou the vile idolatry,
And Thou alone canst show:
Searcher of the treacherous heart,
To me, O God, discover mine,
Then the' idolater convert,
And fill with love Divine.
