Psalm 119:8: O forsake me not utterly
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Thou hast in part forsook,
And long withdrawn Thy grace.
But do not finally rebuke,
Or drive me from Thy face:
Yet if Thou must depart,
Through life the sinner, leave,
O tell it to my dying heart,
Thou dost at last forgive.
