Religion
Isaiah 60:5: Who, what are these, that as a cloud
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Who, what are these, that as a cloud
Swiftly divide the darken'd sky,
Like flocking doves, a countless crowd,
Like doves which to their windows fly!
Weary of wandering after rest,
Lo, to the ark, the church, they come,
And housing in their Saviour's breast
Haste by an heavenly instinct home.
