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.
8 For my afflicted soul from death [Safely] delivered was by thee; Thou didst mine eyes from mourning tears, My feet from [dangerous] falling free.
9 Among the living I will walk, [By faith] as still before the Lord;
10 When greatly I afflicted was, I did believe [and spake] this word.
