Religion
2 Samuel 24:10: David's heart smote him
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
O That my faltering heart may smite
And make me inly groan,
Whene'er I vainly take delight
In aught I call my own!
Harden'd by sin's deceitfulness
O may I never be,
But miss my comfort and my peace,
Whene'er I turn from Thee!
