Acts 10:48: Then prayed they him to tarry certain Joys
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
If Christ His servant bless
And seal by him our peace,
Peace which speaks our sins removed,
Then we know not how to part,
For his Master's sake beloved,
Hold him in our grateful heart.
We wish his longer stay
Till call'd by Christ away,
Him we patiently resign;
Closer then to Jesus cleave
Sure our Comforter Divine
Never will His people leave.
