Hosea: Self-destroy'd for help I pray
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Self-destroy'd for help I pray:
Help me, Saviour, from above.
Help me to believe, obey,
Help me to repent, and love,
Help to keep the graces given,
Help me quite from hell to heaven.
