Joshua 23:14: Pass a few swiftly-fleeting years
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Pass a few swiftly-fleeting years.
And all that now in bodies live,
Shall quit, like me, the vale of tears,
Their righteous sentence to receive:
But all, before they hence remove,
May mansions for themselves prepare
In that eternal house above:
And O! my God, shall I be there!
