For the Parliament
From Hymns of Intercession for All Mankind (1758) · Osborn ed., vol. 6 (1870)
History & Politics
Spirit of heavenly counsel, come,
To teach our senators Thy will,
(To stay a sinking nation's doom.
The wisdom from above reveal,)
Nor let them join the impious crowd.
Nor let them scorn to fear their God.
