Genesis 19:22: Haste thee, escape thither
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Jehovah for His servants cares.
Whene'er He makes His anger known,
The vessels of destruction spares,
Till mercy hath secured its own:
He cannot seal the sinner's doom
In storms of vengeance from above,
Till Lot is unto Zoar come.
And shelter'd safe in Jesu's love.
