4 And praise the glorious God above Who doth such Blessings send; If we his Mercies do improve, Our days will joyful end.
5 'Tis a sore Judgment when the Lord Doth stop the Bottles of Heaven, But O 'tis worse when God's good Word And Blessings are with holden.
5 'Tis a sore Judgment when the Lord Doth stop the Bottles of Heav'n, But O 'tis worse when God's good Word And Blessings are with helden.
6 We wisk away, our glory fades When God his Word denies, Or doth with-hold his Blessings from't, Both Faith and Hope then dies.
7 O look to God, remember him From whom your Fruit doth flow! If you are fruitful, sing his praise, And live unto him too.
