1 Corinthians 16:13: Stand fast in the faith
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Author of our faith, we look
For stronger faith to Thee,
Bless us, Thou eternal Rock,
With Thy stability;
Steadfast and unmoveable,
We then shall in Thy love remain,
Never faint, and never fail,
And never sin again.
Kept by Thine almighty hand,
We our Supporter own,
Humbly, confidently stand,
Till perfected in one;
Stand till with Thy saints in light,
We see Thee pompously descend;
Stand till faith improve to sight,
And grace in glory end.
