THE GOODNESS OF HIS GOD.

When winds and seas do rage,

And threaten to undo me,

Thou dost their wrath assuage,

If I but call unto thee.

A
mighty storm last night
Did seek my soul to swallow;

But by the peep of light

A gentle calm did follow.

What need I then despair

Though ills stand round about me;

Since mischiefs neither dare

To bark or bite without thee?
