Religion
Acts 8: Justice He could not obtain
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Justice He could not obtain
In His humble state beneath,
No humanity from man,
No relief — but pain and death.
Took from earth, He of our sins
Doth the chastisement receive,
Endless life's immortal Prince
Dies, that all mankind may live.
