The Third Part.
[verse 21] Yet thus was my weak heart a whiledisquieted in vain,Through indignation my reinswere pricked with great pain. [verse 22] So ignorant was I, and likea fool besotted quite,And without understanding, waslike a beast in thy sight.
[verse 23] Neverthelesse I do remaincontinually with thee,When I was weak, by my right handthou fast haft holden mee. [verse 24] Thou by thy faithful counsel wiltme always safely guide,And after me receive with theein glory to abide.
[verse 25] In Heaven whom have I but theeto rest upon alone?And on the earth that I desire,besides thee there is none. [ 26]
descriptionPage 171
Mine heart and flesh doth fail me both,but God doth fail me never,For he is of mine heart the strength,my portion he for ever.
[verse 27] For lo, they that go far from thee,shall perish quite and fall,Those that a whoring go from thee,thou hast destroyed all. [verse 28] But surely it is good for mestill to draw near to God,In the Lord God I trust, that Imay shew thy works abroad.
