Exodus 10:17: Forgive my sin only this once
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Times without number have I pray'd.
This only once forgive.
Relapsing, when Thy hand was stay'd
And suffer'd me to live:
Yet now the kingdom of Thy peace.
Lord, to my heart restore,
Forgive my vain repentances,
And bid me sin no more.
