Scripture
KJV
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
ESV
“All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up.
1 Corinthians 10:23
Poem
Lord, ever let me freely yield
What most I prize to thee,
Who never hast a good withheld,
Or wilt withhold from me.
Thy favour all my journey through,
Thou art engaged to grant;
What else I want, or think I do,
'Tis better still to want.
