Numbers 20:28: Happy, for ever happy
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Happy, for ever happy I,
If call'd, like him, the mount to' ascend;
Thine all-sufficient grace supply.
And bless me. Saviour, with his end:
O that without a lingering groan
I might the welcome word receive,
My body with my charge lay down,
And cease at once to work and live!
