Olney Hymns by John Newton

Hymn 73 On the death of a minister.

William Cowper

8,6,8,6

On the death of a minister.

His master taken from his head,

Elisha saw him go;

And, in desponding accents said,

|Ah, what must Israel do!|

But he forgot the LORD, who lifts

The beggar to the throne;

Nor knew, that all Elijah's gifts

Would soon be made his own.

What! when a Paul has run his course,

Or when Apollos dies;

Is Israel left without resource?

And have we no supplies?

Yes, while the dear Redeemer lives,

We have a boundless store;

And shall be fed with what he gives,

Who lives for evermore.
