Religion
Job 13:15: And let my body languish
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
And let my body languish,
(So He my soul redeem,)
Or fail through mortal anguish,
Yet will I trust in Him:
Destruction as a blessing
At Jesu's hands I meet,
And calmly die embracing
My dear Destroyer's feet!
