Religion
Deuteronomy 25:18: This be ever on my mind
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
This be ever on my mind.
And fill my heart with fear,
Lest again I lag behind.
And loiter in the rear;
Let me, Lord, unwearied press
Toward the things before, above.
With the foremost strive to seize
The prize of perfect love.
