Proverbs 16:31: The hoary head is a crown of glory, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Wisdom is the hoary hair;
And who in Christ are found,
They His diadem shall wear,
With life and glory crown'd:
O might I my Lord obey.
Through Jesu's righteousness forgiven.
Still abide in Christ my way,
And walk with God to heaven!
