Religion
Acts 13:36: David, after he had served his own, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Father I would Thy will obey,
Serve Thy church in this my day,
And answer Thy design,
As minister of all and least
Till from my finish'd work I rest
Within the arms Divine.
Rest after toil is doubly sweet!
All my cares I shall forget
If Thou my soul receive;
Shall incorruptible arise,
And see Thee with my body's eyes,
And in Thy glory live.
