137.
[How wisely, Saviour, doth Thy love]
Lest peradventure the people repent, &c.
—xiii. 17.
How wisely, Saviour, doth Thy love
In our behalf appear,
Unequal enemies remove,
And trials too severe!
Thou dost Thy feeble people hide,
While unprepared for war,
Nor e'er permit us to be tried
Above what we can bear.
