John 9:38: The sudden faith Thou hast bestow'd
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
The sudden faith Thou hast bestow'd.
Saviour, I must in words express,
Adore the true eternal God,
And Thee my God, my Lord confess:
For this alone I Thee entreat,'
This only good on earth desire,
To live adoring at Thy feet,
And meekly at Thy feet expire.
