1 Corinthians 15:43: Tus flesh at the last gasp restores
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Religion
Tus flesh at the last gasp restores
The feeble strength it once enjoy'd,
Deprived of all its active force,
It lies of sense and motion void;
But raised in power to reach the skies,
Inspired with vigorous life unknown,
With lightning wing'd, it mounts, it flies,
It stands before the Saviour's throne!
