John 9:4: The Light for a few moments shines
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
The Light for a few moments shines.
That every soul his course may run,
And joining in the Lord's designs
Labour till all his work is done:
But when the Sun of Righteousness
Withdraws from man His Spirit's light.
And leaves us wholly void of grace,
His absence is eternal nic;ht.
