[In my prosperity I said]

In my prosperity I said, I shall never, &c. —xxx. 6.

In my prosperity I said,
So strong in faith by Jesus made,
I never, never shall remove
Or leave the mount of perfect love.
But when Jesus hid His face,
Sunk my soul in deep distress.
I triumph'd in the grace begun,
As all the work at once were done;
My pardon seal'd, my heart is pure,
My state is fix'd, my heaven is sure!
Now implunged in misery,
Lord, again I mourn for Thee.
