Beneath the pois'nous dart
Of Satan's rage I fell-
How narrowly my feet escap'd
The snares of death and hell!
Darkness, and ahame, and grief
Oppressed my gloomy mind;
I look'd around me for relief.
But no relief could find.
At length, to God I cry'd;
He heard my plaintive sigh;
He heard, and instantly he sent
Salvation from on high.
Oh, may I ne'er forget
The mercy of my God!
Nor ever want a tongue to spread
His loudest praise abroad.
