1 Corinthians 15:42: O Blessed hope of life to come
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Religion
O Blessed hope of life to come,
Life which beyond the grave I see!
This body tottering o'er a tomb,
Committed to the ground shall be:
"Tis sown a corruptible seed,
A lump of putrefying clay;
Corinthians xv. 10—44.
Tis raised immortal from the dead,
No more to moulder, or decay.
