Joshua 10:12: Jesus, Thy sovereign will

Jesus, Thy sovereign will
Doth nature's course control;
O bid my sun of life stand still.
And stop my parting soul:
My soul in life detain.
Till Thou hast all subdued.
Avenged me of my foes, and 'slain
The whole accursed brood.

O that the work were done.
That sin were all destroy'd!
How swiftly should I then go down,
How gladly set in God:
Sure with the morning rays
Of that great day to rise,
And bright with borrow'd glory blaze
Eternal in the skies.
