Hymne. XII. When we returne Home.
[_]
Though our Affaires may not permit us to sing upon all such occasions, yet we ought at all times to be thankfull: and we have, at least, leisure enough to Meditate to this purpose, when we returne home.
Sing this as the former Hymne.
[1]
Since, Lord thou hast well pleased bin,(As now it may appeare)
To beare me forth, to bring me in,
And set me safely here;
I, who deserved not this Grace,
Should far lesse worthy be,
If I repay not in this place,
The thanks I owe to thee.
2
My Tongue therfore, Oh Lord (my King)Now soundeth out thy praise:
My heart the self same strain doth sing;
And, thus to thee it sayes:
Thou art my God; and never shall
Another God be mine;
And Kingdomes, Powers, and Glories, all
For ever shall be thine.
