Forever be thy name adored; I blush in all things to abound; The servant of a gracious Lord. 4 I have no skill the snare to shun, But Thou O God, my wisdom art: I ever into danger run, But thou art greater than my heart. 5 I rest beneath thy kindly shade; My griefs expire, my troubles cease; Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stayed, Wilt keep me still in perfect peace.
