20 Thou, Lord who troubles great and sore Didst bring [on me] and make me know, ⟨p. 115⟩Shalt quicken and bring me again [Even] from [the] depth of earth below.
21 Yea, thou my greatness shalt increase, Thy blessings [on me] shall abound; And with thy comforts and sweet peace Thou [safely] wilt enclose me round.
22 I'll use the pleasant Psaltery To make thy praises [further] known; And with the Harp I'll sing to thee, O Israel's [most] Holy One.
22 I'le use the pleasant Psaltery To make thy praises [further] known; And with the Harp I'le sing to thee, O Israel's [most] Holy One.
23 My lips shall my great joy express, When [singing] I thy praises sound; My soul which thou redeemed hast, Shall with her [holy] joy abound.
