Hope thou in God.
Psalm 42:5.
My soul! triumphant in the Lord,
Proclaim thy joys abroad,
And march with holy vigor on,
Supported by thy God.
2 Through every winding maze of life,
His hand has been my guide;
And in his long-experienced care,
My heart shall still confide.
3 His grace through all the desert flows,
An unexhausted stream;
That grace, on Zion’s sacred mount,
Shall be my endless theme.
4 Beyond the choicest joys of time,
Thy courts on earth I love;
But O! I burn with strong desire
To view thy house above.
5 There, joined with all the shining band,
My soul would thee adore;
A pillar in thy temple fixed,
To be removed no more.
