[Happy soul, enjoy thy lot]

I shall see Him, but not now, &c. —xxiv. 17.

Happy soul, enjoy thy lot,
Finding Him thou soughtest not:
O that I with thee could say,
“I shall see Him in that day!”
When He doth on earth appear,
O might I behold Him near,
Now, like the old seer, forgiven,
Snatch'd as out of hell to heaven!
