Religion
Ruth 1: Determined after Thee I bear
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Determined after Thee I bear
My cross to Calvary,
And come Thy bitterest cup to share.
And with my Saviour die:
The place where once Thy body lay,
The place it did perfume,
There will I drop my breathless clay.
And rest within Thy tomb.
