[In Abraham's sepulchre they rest]
They were...laid in the sepulchre that, &c.
—vii. 16.
In
Abraham's sepulchre they rest,
Who once did in his footsteps go,
Pilgrims, like him, themselves confess'd,
Strangers and sojourners below
By faith embraced the promise given,
And sought their settlement in heaven.
Who once did in his footsteps go,
Pilgrims, like him, themselves confess'd,
Strangers and sojourners below
By faith embraced the promise given,
And sought their settlement in heaven.
Who faith's sincere obedience show'd
Their Isaacs here by offering up
Are gather'd to the friends of God;
Their bodies too repose in hope,
Their souls in Abraham's bosom lie
Safe with their Father in the sky.
