Religion
Job 40:4: Great God, unknown, invisible
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Great God, unknown, invisible,
Appear, my confidence to' abase,
To make me all my vileness feel.
And blush at my own righteousness;
Thy glorious face in Christ display,
And silenced by Thy mercy's power,
My hand upon my mouth I lay.
And never boast, or murmur more.
