Death & Dying
On the Death of Thomas Beard, Hymn 6: For a Sick Friend
From Hymns and Sacred Poems (1749) · Osborn ed., vol. 5 (1869)
Death & Dying
See, Lord, with pity see
The object of Thy love,
And help his soul's infirmity,
And all his griefs remove,
Support the tottering clay
That weighs his spirit down,
And lead him through this thorny way
To that eternal crown.
