2 Peter: Wresthng on for faith's increase
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Religion
Wresthng on for faith's increase,
Striving to perform His will,
Labouring after holiness,
Straining up perfection's hill,
Let me thus till death be found;
Dying thus I shall not die,
But with brighter glory crown'd
Reign with Christ above the sky.
