Religion
Exodus 17:6: Thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Saviour, from Thine open side,
When smote with Moses" rod,
Issued forth the sacred tide
Which slakes our thirst for God:
Rock of never-failing love.
Let Thy refreshing streams pursue.
Till with Thee we drink above
The wine for ever new.
