2 Kings 6:16: Thick swarming from the dark abyss
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Thick swarming from the dark abyss
What troops our soul assail,
Rulers and principalities
And all the fiends of hell!
But Israel's God, supreme in might.
Their countless host o'erpowers.
Single He puts them all to flight;
And IsracFs God is ours.
