Death & Dying
On the Death of Thomas Beard, Hymn 16
From Hymns and Sacred Poems (1749) · Osborn ed., vol. 5 (1869)
Death & Dying
All worship and love
To the Father above,
Who hath summon'd another His glory to prove:
Who in pity and grace
Hath shorten'd his race,
And caught up a worm to the sight of His face.
