2 Kings 4:35: The child opened his eyes
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
See the power of God display'd,
The mortal, quickemng power!
He the Hving kills, the dead
He doth to life restore!
The great power of faith confess,
Reversing laws to nature given!
Power of prayer, which hath the keys
Of death, the womb, and heaven!
