Religion
Acts 22:9: They...saw indeed the light, and were afraid, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
The heavenly light to all appear'd,
The sound, but not the voice they heard
With unavailing fright,
Sounds indistinct cannot convert,
And stubborn unbelief of heart
Resists an outward light.
To save an infidel from sin,
Eternal Light, appear within
My heart's obscurity;
Display Thy Father in Thy face,
And by the Spirit of Thy grace
Apply Thy word to me.
