Genesis 22:10: Resolved, O God, with all to part
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Resolved, O God, with all to part,
I bring the victim crown'd.
The dearest partner of my heart
Is on the altar bound!
Spirit and soul asunder tear,
I say. Thy will be done;
And thus, by Thee required, I bare
Mine arm to slay my son!
