Religion
Isaiah 60:2: While nations unenlighten'd lie
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
While nations unenlighten'd lie,
With darkness palpable o'erspread.
On thee the Dayspring from on high,
The Lord His brightest beams shall shed.
Stamp'd with the sinless character,
His praise thou shalt display below,
And putting on thy Saviour here,
Jehovah's glorious image show.
