8 Thou dost my wanderings tell, Let down thy bottle, Lord, And put in there each briny tear, Are they not on record?

9 When I shall cry to thee, It puts to sudden flight My daunted foe; and this I know, For God defends my right.
10 In God enabling me, I will his word proclaim; Yea, in the Lord will I record His word's due praise and fame.
11 In God alone have I Reposed my trust for aid; Let mortal man do what he can, I will not be afraid.
