Religion
1 Samuel 30:5: Let earth and hell their powers engage
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Let earth and hell their powers engage.
And fierce temptations rise,
Above their impotence of rage
My soul to Jesus flies:
Louder than all their threats I hear
The voice of Love Divine,
Nor can I faint nor can I fear.
Who know that God is mine.
