Religion
Mark 14:37: Who promised with his Lord to die
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Who promised with his Lord to die,
But sinks so soon, by sleep o'ercome.
Did he not on himself rely,
And rash on his own strength presume?
Gently rebuked, and call'd again,
Full of himself, he slights the call.
Who will not see must bHnd remain,
And fall, to wake him from his fall.
