Religion
Acts 7:60: Lord, lay not this sin to their charge
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Rival meek of Jesu's passion,
Lo, the lamblike victim bleeds,
Breathes the final supplication,
For his murderers intercedes,
Loudly in His Spirit crying
Through whose only death we live,
Echoes the Redeemer dying,
Bows his head, and gasps " Forgive!"
