1 Samuel 22:2: Fly, sinners, fly to David's Son
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Fly, sinners, fly to David's Son,
Distress'd, indebted, and undone.
Him for your Captain choose.
Let Him your ruin'd cause maintain;
The worst, and most forlorn of men
He never will refuse.
If such Thou wilt indeed receive.
Captain, to Thee my name I give.
The poorest outcast I;
And joining now the desperate band.
And subjected to Thy command,
With Thee I live and die,
