[Their wonder plainly show'd]
When they...saw him, they were astonished.
—xii. 16.
Their wonder plainly show'd
That sueing for His aid
They had not dictated to God,
But with submission pray'd;
In humble faith made known
Their sorrowful request,
And left the' event to Him alone
Whose will is always best.

And left the' event to Him alone

But God the poor attends
When saints afflicted cry,
He knows His Spirit's mind, and sends
Deliverance from the sky;
He lifts the humble up
Who at His footstool grieve,
And more than they presumed to hope
Their Lord delights to give.
