Joshua 6:20: When the people heard the sound of the trumpet, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
I Then let us urge our way,
And work, and sufier on.
Nor dream, the first, or second, day
Will throw the bulwarks down:
We on the sacred morn
Our sevenfold toil repeat,
Expecting that the latest turn
Our labour shall complete.
Then, then we shall obtain
The victory one and all,
The number of perfection gain.
And see the city fall,
Partakers of our hope
Our calling's glorious prize.
To finish'd holiness go up,
And then to paradise.
