1 Timothy 3:15: Ir faith in our dear dying Lord
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Ir faith in our dear dying Lord
The sacred instrument applies,
The virtue of His hallowing word
Shall make us to salvation wise,
Wise our high calling's prize to' attain,
And everlasting glory gain.
Jesus, the Spirit of faith bestow,
Who only can Thy book unseal,
And give me all Thy will to know,
And give me all Thy mind to feel,
Fill'd with the wisdom from above,
The purity of heavenly love.
