Religion
Deuteronomy 32:15: And have not I ungrateful been
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
And have not I ungrateful been,
Basely forsook my God for sin.
My God who form'd me man,
Abused my Saviour's pardoning grace.
And turn'd it into wantonness,
And murder'd Him again!
Thee that I may no more forsake,
O Rock of my salvation, take
And keep me in Thy side;
There in the open cleft secure
My contrite heart, my spirit poor
From sin for ever hide.
