Genesis 18:27: Despicable, frail, and dying
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Despicable, frail, and dying.
Vile before my God I am,
On Thine only grace relying;
Dust and ashes is my name:
Fallen, and corrupt my nature,
Yet I dare address Thy throne,
Speaking through a Mediator,
Him who makes my prayer His own.
