HYMN 482. (2. PART.)

All People, &c.

Vers. 13.

GOD pities them that fear his Name, as Fathers pity their own Sons: [verse 14] For well he knows our brittle Frame, and whence our composition comes. [verse 15] Our time is like the flowry Grass, so fair and pleasant to the view; [verse 16] Which at a blast doth fade and pass,, and leaves no token where it grew.
[verse 17] But still the mercy of the Lord doth bear an everlasting date, To them that tremble at his word, and are the true regenerate. His righteousness doth still endure to Childrens Children, great and small: [verse 18] To them that keep his Covenant sure, and mind his Laws to do them all.
