Religion
Deuteronomy 6:7: When quiet in my house I sit
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
When quiet in my house I sit.
Thy book be my companion still.
My joy Thy sayings to repeat.
Talk o'er the records of Thy will,
And search the oracles Divine,
Till every heartfelt word is mine.
