When waves of adverſe fortune meet,

Thou prov’d a guide unto my feet.

2. My ſong ſhall always be on GOD,

I’m ſav’d by his uplifted rod;

My utmoſt ſearch ſhall be to know

The LORD who ſav’d from froſt and ſnow.

3. LORD may I fear thee all my days,

Thy mercies claim my higheſt praiſe;

For in the time of deep deſpair,

Preſerv’d I was by heav’nly care.
