Religion
2 Kings 4:19: He said unto his father. My head, my head
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
To whom with my complaints should I,
But to my heavenly Father, go?
Father, to Thee in pain I cry.
My heart, my heart to Thee I show!
It breaks, if Thou Thy help delay,
The soul which Thou hast made expires.
My spirit faints and sinks away,
Implunged in everlasting fires.
