Religion
Acts 26:29: Conscious of my happiness
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Conscious of my happiness,
Peace, unutterable peace
Would I not to all impart,
Peace which now o'erfiows my heart,
Makes it tenderly inclined,
Draws it out to all mankind!
Bless'd with my felicity
O that every soul might be,
Feel what real Christians feel,
Joy incomprehensible,
Live the life of those above,
Swallow'd up and lost in love!
