Death & Dying
Job 14:13, 14: Hide me in my Saviour's grave
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Hide me in my Saviour's grave.
Till Thy wrath is all o'erpass'd:
Now appoint a time to save,
Think on me for good at last,
Brought out of Thy secret place
Pure in heart to see Thy face.
For this only thing I Avait,
Wait with vehement patient hope,
Raised to my un sinning state
Till I after God wake up,
Glorious in Thine image shine,
Fill'd with life and love Divine.
