Religion
2 Samuel 6:22: Great in the field of battle, great
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Great in the field of battle, great
The monarch on his judgment-seat
His dread authority maintains.
And conscious of his grandeur reigns:
But before Him who rules the skies,
Humbled as in the dust he lies.
Dares, in the meanest services.
The least of all himself confess.
