Religion
Genesis 19:17: Escape for thy life, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
O May I never look behind.
To sin and Satan turn again.
Rest in the world, or comfort find
In self, or linger on the plain.
But reaching tow'rd the mountain, fly,
And 'scape to Jesus in the sky.
