With transport I survey
Thy promises, oh God!
Those springs of sacred joy,
And faith’s delicious food:
Here truth and love
Their force unite,
And shine with rays
Divinely bright.
Thy solemn oath confirms
The grace which they contain;
Whose hope is founded here,
shall never hope in vain:
When billows swell
And tempests rise,
Hither my soul
For shelter flies.
Amidst my numerous griefs
And heart distracting cares,
Oppressive loads of guilt,
And overwhelming fears;
let me but know
The promise mine,
What else I want,
I’ll not repine.
