Deuteronomy: That it might be well with them for ever
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Father, Thy merciful design
We see, and joyfully approve.
Thou kindly dost Thy laws enjoin,
To make us happy in Thy love:
With joy we own the gracious end
For which Thy laws were all bestow'd,
Thou dost by each command intend
Our present and eternal good.
