2 Kings 2:12: Lord of hosts, to Thee we bow
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Lord of hosts, to Thee we bow,
Israels car and horsemen Thou!
Shall we not Thy loss deplore,
Whom we see on earth no more?
Ever mindful of Thine own.
Thou for us to heaven art gone.
Gone but to prepare our place.
Room for all the ransom'd race.
