Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #169 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics:
1.
Lord, what a thoughtless wretch was I,
To mourn, and murmur, and repine;
To see the wicked placed on high,
In pride and robes of honor shine.
But O their end! their dreadful end!
Thy sanctuary taught me so;
On slippery rocks I see them stand,
And fiery billows roll below.
