Religion
Nehemiah 1:11: O Lord, let Thine ear lie attentive to the prayer, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Lord, in kind compassion hear
One who would Thy greatness fear.
Grant my feeble heart's desire.
With that godly awe inspire;
When I truly fear Thy name.
Sure of farther grace I am,
Then I shall Thy mercy prove,
Then I shall Thy goodness love.
