[Who follows Christ with heart sincere]
If any man come to Me, and hate not his, &c.
—xiv. 26.
Who follows Christ with heart sincere,
Sits loose to all relations here,
From every creature free:
The tenderest love which nature knows
Compared with what to Christ he owes
May pass for enmity.
Sits loose to all relations here,
From every creature free:

Compared with what to Christ he owes
May pass for enmity.
Far above all competitors
Jesus the Saviour he prefers,
Jesus the Good supreme;
His bosom-friend if Christ demands
He renders back into His hands,
Or dies himself for Him.
