Religion
Deuteronomy 4:29: If from thence thou shall seek the Lord, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
From hence, most gracious Lord, from hence
The land of my captivity,
I wail my complicate offence,
And turn from every sin to Thee;
Mine utmost strength (which is not mine)
In striving against sin exert,
And weep, and pray for love Divine
With all my soul, and all my heart.
