“W HEREFORE so heavy, O my soul,”
(Thus to myself I said)—
“Wherefore so heavy, O my soul,
And so disquieted?

Hope thou in God; He still shall be
Thy glory and thy praise;
His saving grace shall comfort thee,
Through everlasting days.

His goodness made thee what thou art,
And yet will thee redeem;
Only be thou of a good heart,
And put thy trust in Him.”
