4 Upon the name of God, my help, Then did I [daily] call, and say, Deliver thou my grieved soul, O Lord, I do thee [humbly] pray.
5 Our God is merciful and just, Yea [very] gracious is the Lord;
6 He saves the meek: I was brought low, And he did [speedy] help afford.
7 My soul, distrust thy God no more, Return [by faith] to him thy Rest; Who largely in thy great distress [To thee] his bounty hath expressed.
7 My soul, distrust thy God no more, Return [by faith] to him thy Rest; Who largely in thy great distress [To thee] his bounty hath exprest.
