Oft my doubts and fears arise,
Weak and fickle in my frame;
Yet the Lord will not despise
Humble souls who fear his name.
When he frowns at my neglect,
Makes me feel the chastening rod,
�Tis my follies to correct,
And to bring me near to God.
When I his withdrawments mourn,
Oft he condescends to smile;
Then with love and zeal I burn,
Cheerfully obey his will.
He�s my refuge ever nigh,
Nor his love will I forget;
If I perish when I die,
I will perish at his feet.
