Religion
Zephaniah 3:18: Head of Thy church, for Thee we look
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Head of Thy church, for Thee we look
Her long captivity to turn,
Whose solemn feasts despised, forsook,
Whose desolate estate we mourn:
With sorrow her reproach we bear.
But plead the sure, prophetic word.
And wait, in answer of our prayer.
To SQe: Jerusalem restored.
