4 To God I cried when troubles rose; od tad S
He heard me, and subdued my foesgow od
He did my rising fears control, silt lɔctel
And strength diffus'd through all my soul. A
5 Amidst a thousand snares I stand,b siodt nl &
Upheld and guarded by thy hand; ew boo
Thy words my fainting soul revive, boi sH
And keep my dying faith alive.
6 Grace will complete what grace begins,
To save from sorrows or from sins;
The work that wisdom undertakes,
Eternal mercy ne'er forsakes.
