CXIX. AFTER HER DELIVERY.

Thee faithful and true, O Jesus, we praise,
Omnipotent too, And plenteous in grace:
Of life the kind Giver, Thy goodness we prove,
Which loves to deliver Who hang on Thy love.
Brought through the dread hour And torturing fires,
The proof of Thy power And mercy respires,
The promise declaring Thy truth she receives,
And saved in childbearing Thy confessor lives.
She lives to extol Thy wonderful name,
And invocate all Her Lord to proclaim,
To sing of her Saviour And Lover Divine,
And rest in Thy favour Eternally Thine.
