Religion
Numbers 24:17: I shall see Him, but not now, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Happy soul, enjoy thy lot,
Finding Him thou soughtest not:
O that I with thee could say,
"I shall see Him in that day!"
When He doth on earth appear,
O might I behold Him near,
Now, like the old seer, forgiven,
Snatch'd as out of hell to heaven!
