Religion
Ruth 1:16: Thy people by the world abhorr'd
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Thy people by the world abhorr'd
I for my people take,
And serve the servants of my Lord,
For their dear Master's sake:
Appeased and reconciled to me,
Through Thine atoning blood,
Thy Father and Thy God shall be
My Father and my God.
