116 I the High and Holy One , Isr el s God by all adored, As thy Saviour will be known, Thy Redeemer and thy Lord.

3 For a moment I withdrew, And thy heart was fill d with pain ; But my mercies I ll renew, Thou shalt soon rejoice again : Though I seem to hide my face, Yery soon my wrath shall cease ; Tis but for a moment s space, Ending in eternal peace.

4 When my peaceful bow appears, . Painted on the wat ry cloud ; Tis to dissipate thy fears, Lest the earth should be o erflow d : Tis an emblem too of grace, Of my cov nant love a sign ; Though the mountains leave their place, Thou shalt be for ever mine.

5 Though afflicted, tempest-toss d. Comfortless awhile thou art, Do not think thou canst be lost, Thou art graven on my heart : All thy wastes I will repair, Thou shalt be rebuilt anew; And in thee it shall appear What a God of love can do.

1 THE Lord will happiness divine On contrite hearts bestow : Then tell me, gracious God, is mine A contrite heart or no ?

2 I hear, but seem to hear in vain, Insensible as steel ; If aught is felt, tis only pain To find I cannot feel.
