Luke 7: Her loss she never can forget
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Her loss she never can forget.
Till Life and death together meet,
The sinner and his God:
He comes, and lifts His mourner up.
He fills her heart with cheerful hope,
And sheds His love abroad.
Pitying He hears the widow's prayers,
For souls that claim her tenderest cares,
Bereft of life and power;
And soon returning from the skies,
Jesus will banish all her sighs,
And bid her weep no more.
