Zechariah 13: But the third shall he left therein
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Need I then, my God, despair
Thy favour to retain?
Lost if two in three there are.
The third shall still remain:
Of the third distinguish'd part
That I may live for ever one.
Stamp Thine image on my heart.
And join mc to Thy Son.
