I. Some things, great God, my Soul doth long to have, Before these mortal days of mine be over, Which things, Lord of thee I do humbly crave, Before I go from hence and be no more; Until which things, O Lord, I do obtain, I shall be filled with sorrow, grief, and pain.
I. SOme things, great God, my Soul doth long to have, Before these mortal days of mine be o'er, Which things, Lord of thee I do humbly crave, Before I go from hence and be no more; Until which things, O Lord, I do obtain, I shall be fill'd with sorrow, grief, and pain.
II. Alas, my sorrows they do greatly double; O that thou wouldst be pleased to hear me Lord, So should my Soul thereby be freed from trouble, If that these things to me thou wouldst afford; Until, O Lord, thou grants me my request, I can't give over, nor give thee any rest.
