Religion
Numbers 21:9: Faint my head, and sick my heart
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Faint my head, and sick my heart.
Wounded, bruised, in every part,
Satan's fiery sting I feel
Poison'd with the pride of hell:
But if at the point to die
Upward I direct mine eye,
Jesus lifted up I see.
Live by Him, who died for me.
