[Offering up his soul in prayer]

And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, &c. —vii. 59.

Offering up his soul in prayer
Stephen on his God relies
Call'd the Saviour's death to share,
Join'd to Jesu's sacrifice;
“Trusting in Thy only merit,
Thee my Lord and God I own,
O receive my ransom'd spirit
Take a sinner to Thy throne.”
