Religion
Genesis 49:33: Jacob gathered up his feet into the bed, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Shrinking from the cold hand of death,
I too shall gather up my feet,
Shall soon resign this fleeting breath.
And die, my father's God to meet;
Number'd among Thy people, I
Expect with joy '''hy face to see.
Because Thou didst for sinners die.
Thou wilt in death remember me.
