And all the tempting snares that so deceive,
Do lose their pow’r when we to Heaven cleave.
“Is any one afflicted? Let him pray!”
Go, kneel, ye sorrowing ones! and thus receive
That heavenly peace, whose soul enlivening ray
The world can never give, nor ever take away.
XXXV.
Together kneeling at the sufferer’s side,
They pour’d their sorrows in Jehovah’s ear;
And when in vain to him has mourner cried?
